    I think the ones you want are the type 54 Ben. I had a set but sold them after I sold my 78 and all the Venturer parts I had to go on it.

        But it would be best if someone with these mounted on their bike would confirm........

                    They also have the specifically made for Yamaha lowers that actually had the Yamaha tuning forks which were also made by Vetter they do not have the extended back portion. More heat on your legs but less heat on engine in summer
                    To fix the problem one should not make more assumptions than the minimum needed.

                          tagged on backside of lowers......if it's still there.

                              Thanks for the compliment hard to believe I had it apart in a shed in buckets for 10 years. The fairing I have is a little different than most it was purchased with my bike as a Yamaha Feature Silverbird II package had new springs for front tubes new shocks for the back and a few other pieces I have long lost for the inside of the Fairing it keep air and noise from coming up threw Fairing . It does not clamp to the frame it bolts to it and the lowers you see are some times on Fleabay but its what you decide to go with covered uncovered some take them off in summer for heat issues.
