Sport Touring Builds?

I do have a 78 CX here with a shadow mad Max fairing but if I ever get to building that bike I'm likely to not use the fairing and build it as a custom.

Strangely, I have three 78 CXs that had these fairings, all in a fairly narrow range of frame numbers.

I wonder if these bikes were always together and perhaps had been rental bikes originally.

I only have one of the fairings but three sets of bracketry.

The thingy was one of these bikes.

Like this - but this one's not mine.

I came across those while looking for an image.

I don't think you get the bracketry or windscreen with them.

Could be wrong.

I used to have this BMW RS replica fairing on my EC when living in cold winter Canberra but it quickly came off after moving to hot, humid Queensland.
At least in Canberra summers the lowers were detachable for hot weather.

I don't like too much plastic. I have larger rolltop dry saddle bags for touring.

Most take some better pictures of the Silverwing in it's Solo riding State. Silvy is a 1981 but two summers ago I replaced the engine with the orginal one out of my 83 Cx650e. Exhaust has Gl500i mufflers and headers ,but custom made outlets that are larger then Oem size. Easily gets up to impound speeds on the highway. Been on alot of differant bikes in my life and after all these years the 81 ish fairings are still my favorite one. This year I'm about 400 kilometers from 12,000 kms and we still have a month left to ride.
Summer bike is of course the 83 Cx650 eurosport which I would call the more Sport/ than touring bike but still comfy to ride 600km's in a day.
Top picture is of the Hope Slide ,usually I go here when the snow has melted on it . Was a nice warm spring day at home but thankfully the sidebags carry my warmer gear.
