Aftermarket fairings

Has anyone had any luck with swapping out some fairings on maybe a 91 z1000 or something like that on a 1991 concours 1000? Trying to figure out a way to change the front fairing out because I don’t like how wide it is and the windscreen, feel like the ninja 1000 fairings would give a more sleek look but didn’t know if anyone had tried it yet
 
The gpz route has been done successfully so I'd recommend going that way. Switching plastics can be a challenge and can get pricey. If you like fabrication and have tools, skills and money, then go for it. You'll have folks here cheering you on. If you're not up for all of that, I 'd leave Connie alone. Use it as intended and pick up a sport bike. One reason I bought a C10 to begin with was the fairing. Make it your cool to cold weather bike. Nothing wrong with having a bike for every occasion.😉
 
The above is a forum follower airmonger. Took a K1100RS (BMW) and said it adapted easily. Of course the bike has several major mods but the fairing isn't bothered
 
Forum membr talonl put a GPZ900 fairing and stay along with gauges (plugs matched), radiator, headlight, and a modified radiator hose from a GPZ900. . Perhaps some other body bits too. Stay was a direct bolt on as the frames appear to be identical to the ZG1000, at least up front, reportedly with holes to accommodate ZG1000 and GPZ900 stays.
