  Hey...   nice ride!!  You know...  you gotta be careful with that windshield...  if I told you how much that original Ceptor windshield sold for on ebay, you'd store it and put a Sno Stuff on!  Those gold piped/red pinstriped originals are Ultra Rare!!!  Wish we lived closer, I'd go riding with you!      Tory

Hi Tory, you're right those original windshields are very rare...haven't seen another live one yet...!

I was bidding on one of those ebay windshields.....the price went up way too fast for me.....had to quit....  :-(

I have another nos windshield (with black ribbing only and no red stripe)  that does have the part number stamped on it....i think Kawi made a different one for their parts dept....

Maybe if i have a chance, i'll head down towards your area at one point this winter and we could go for a ride.....

Take care !

If you look in the old Interceptor color brochures you can see the factory windshield...  red stripe w/gold edge.  They do exist, but as much as I like the Interceptor, you won't see me spending 500 bucks on a windshield.  That's just nuts IMO.  When I get a chance, I'll snap a pic of mine so you can take a look.
