:-) Avon Police Fairing / Russian Sidecar Bikes :-)

Post by Iray »

I have in my posession an Avon Police Fairing pic enclosed
It is my hope that someone can tell me what years and model boxer
it was used on . I aquired it in a deal from a friend and his valuation
it seemed excessive so any info as to its value as well as its application
would be most helpful . I currently am building a vintage BMW sidecar
road racer as well as run a Dnepr sidecar BMW clone .
I have some contacts for eastern bloc spares for Dneprs as well as Urals
so any enquiries about spares would also be wellcomed .
Ride Safe I feel spring must be gettin close . iray :-)

I couldnt get jpg to load here is link to view it

From the inclusion of the turnsignals, it looks like the fairing is for a /5. I cannot see much of the body of the fairing, but the part around the headlight looks similar to the Avonnaire fairing that many /5's had. I had an Avonnaire on a /2, with bar end signals, and the /2 fairing has a rounded nose with no signals in it.

The Avonnaire fairing for the /2 is still made by Sprint in England, and costs about $1000 plus shipping and duty. For more information about your fairing you could contact:
