mkoppeser Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 Did I see a thread about someone producing replacement tail pieces for 78-80 GS1000 's somewhere in the UK? Quote Link to comment
Swirl Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 I've not seen it but interesting if so Quote Link to comment
Blubber Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 This fits the description vagely in the For sale 1 Quote Link to comment
mkoppeser Posted May 10, 2020 Author Share Posted May 10, 2020 Thanks Blubber but I don't have enough posts to access the for sale section. Thought I'd seen something about fiberglass ones being produced in the UK. Webike Japan has them but they're outrageously expensive. Airtech in California only does the S model fairings and belly pans. Quote Link to comment

mkoppeser Posted May 15, 2020 Author Share Posted May 15, 2020 Nice. This one has them replaced replaced with the signals. 1 Quote Link to comment
Reinhoud Posted May 16, 2020 Share Posted May 16, 2020 (edited) Do you want another tail piece because you don't like the reflectors? Or do you just want something different? You can use resin to fill the plastic of the tail piece.. I don't know how to write this properly Edited May 16, 2020 by Reinhoud Quote Link to comment

I don't know how to write this properly No, I was just asking if anyone knew of replacement units being produced in the UK. It's weird they (suzuki oem) still sells side covers but not tail pieces. 1 Quote Link to comment
MikOtoole Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Saw one advertised on e bay last week. They’re flush at the sides, no reflector and they made with a piece at the back , which you’d have to cut to put the standard light in , or just use the two small rear/ brake lights you can buy. I think they were German made. Like a fu#*in’ numpty, I didn’t save the link , so I’m trawling Eblag , trying to find it again. They look good quality. Quote Link to comment
