    I need new edge moulding for the 'Yamaha' fairing on my 1100SG? Anybody know where I can find any of this? Nothing at Lordco, Napa, several body shops...

    I bought some at AUTOZONE that was very close to the original.

    If you change it all it works out great.

    This was in Beloit Wi

      You can get it from Vetter. He sells the kits direct. I'm assuming your fairing is a Yamaha-branded Vetter fairing.

              Thanks all, I'll be placing an order with Vetter today. Just FYI, I've been putting some lipstick on the old girl and should have some pics to post soon once I get my kids to do the upload. (They refer to me as the techno-peasant). Polished up the fairing, tank, side covers; painted the emblems and saddle bags, just doing a reno on the luggage rack. Mufflers and tires next.
