    Quite pricey for just a bracket and wiring eh??? Still might be worth it to the right person.

      I guess, cause it's 'new' and never been used before, then the price isn't so bad.
      Mine is way old and one of the welds have broke, plus I don't have a harness, so I had to 'make' one.

      If I had the money, I'd probably spend it on that, but sadly I don't and Mrs. budget keeps me on a tight leash.

        That's about $100 more than what I paid for the same thing shipped. Even got the brochure people try to sell for $15 on eBay.

          This Thing Is Brand Stinking New

          Just to let you naysayers know, this is like being back in 1979
          when you got a new WJ and all the mounting hardware was
          still sealed in the original box from Vetter. Even has the straps to
          go around your fork legs to mount the auxillary side reflectors
          that are also still sealed in "mint" condition and it has the black bag for
          all of your harness to be neatly tied-up and kept from the elements...
          Of course the bracket is show quality as if it had
          been made yesterday and all of the electrical connectors are still sealed.
          I, for one, was one happy camper when I opened the original box...
          YOMV but that's my experience with the seller and this item

            The way prices are going up on all NOS XS parts as they slowly get sold off makes me reconsider using any NOS stuff I have.
            Maybe I need to pack it all away in cool dry storage and make it part of my retirement portfolio.

                ebay bracket

                The bracket has found its way to a good home. Found A windjammer ss locally in great shape but without the bracket, and unfortanately i am not a welder nor have the ability to make my own. Now with the addition of this fairing my xs11 special will be complete.

                  Value is in the eye of the buyer. I never say if something it too high or low. You bought it and are happy that's all that matters. Probably nice working with new parts!
