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.

It is unclear to me whether the mad Max fairings were produced first and the molds converted to the CX or vice versa.

But those in my google pic aren't CX specific.

I also note that the pic I've used from Norris bikes in Queensland is also a 78.

Bertrands name would reflect La Parisienne I would guess.

I've moved this thread to customisation and mods.
