My frame is unmolested.I made a point keeping it as made.I would not weld even a clamp.I modified almost every part to fit the frame.I finely finished modifying my old denco's & would like to fit the fairing.I need to know the length from the end of stub/clamp on the steering head to the end of the tube that the tac is mounted.(where the fairing is held on)
thanks Brad

Good thing you didn't mess with the frame! The kawasaki gods would have struck you down where you stand... But since they didn't that tube is 9.5" from the spigot. There is also a slight angle to it, a second price welded on.

It looked and sounded GREAT!! I think I "accidentally" got a really short clip of it screaming up the back straight during Friday morning practice.
