The R60/5 is currently being restored (S L O
W L Y).
One of the major items is the full Mitchenall
Bros Avon fairing fitted by the original owner Ian Taylor.
The fairing has been on the bike since almost its first days
in Victoria (Australia) and is now very much worse for wear. I picked up a new
screen for the fairing in 1996/1997 from BM in Brisbane but have
not fitted this to the bike yet.
I tracked down a spare transfer / decal from Sprint in the UK. (see below)

Below are some pictures of the condition
of the fairing before the restoration. (After
repair)

Tha Avon full fairing was originally fitted by Ian Taylor
of the MSCAV. It weighed the front end down but reduced
wind noise to almost zero. Something the F800ST and F650GS
can not match.
