XS?
Welcome to the forum Hideki. Actually I think it is an XS. The bike has a Special front fork and looks like a shaft drive. If my old eyes are correct it's either a xs750/850 or a xs11. The chrome piece behind the carbs is like a xs750/850/1100. The brake discs and the calipers are right. Do you have a right side view that shows the pipes?1979XS1100SF

That IS an XS11. The '750/850 have a different brakes on the front. With the rotors, I think an '80 or '81 Special was the starting point, as the front calipers look to be the "XS11 Special ONLY" style.
There was a thread here about fairing, and it had a link to a company you could order them from. I think you would need to start with a "bigger bike" fairing, and modify it to fit.

I thought it was an xs11, but I couldn't see the number of pipes to be sure. The swing arm caps also look correct.1979XS1100SF
