    Is this a Vetter?

    I'm looking for a little help in ID'ing this fairing. I picked it up as a package deal with a set of KG hard bags and trunk, it was all on an '82 Virago 920. Thought somebody here might want it if they knew exactly what it is first. I already have a Vetter V with lowers but this one looks different, it has no turn signals.
    My other question concerns the broken lens on the right side of the KG trunk.
    Does anybody have one or know where to get one? Is it possible to do some 'glass work and use newer lenses that are replaceable? Thanks for the help!

            Could be a II or III because I see the flats on the sides for mounting the stock Special turn signals.
