Isn't it the same fairing as the one on Gooses bike in Mad Max? (La parisienne.)

:shock: bloody hell where's the Visa !!!

Yes bones, that is a LaPas fairing, the top-half looks like a dinkum MkII version, *almost* identical to the Mk I upper, just some very minor detail differences.....lower half is a modified LaPas, it has been modded quite a bit, but still cuts the mustard as a Goose fairing........

I can't believe its fitted to a Plastic Maggot :vom: - thats sacriliege !!!

It almost worth buying that shitbox just for the fairing........ :wink:

That's what I thought Gos. :) You could remove the fairing and sell the bike on, for similar money.

going from the pics you cant ride it from 9.5k through to 10.5k or so, do you just drop a gear and rev it like hell to get it through the problematic revrange?

If it hurts, you aren't doing it right.
