any of you got any ideas how to get rid of the stock headlight and trick it out to get a 2gen look?

There's a guy over at Max-Suz that swapped a 2G fairing onto a 1G. You'd have to ask him for any details. IIRC, it involved a bit of bracket fabbing.

One of the European suppliers was selling a two headlight insert that fit into the original space in the 1 gen bandit fairing. They looked more like small projection beams.....
Probably was WilD Hare Accessories........in Phoenix.

Yes, it was... but it hasn't been on their site in a couple years. They weren't projectors tho - just a pair of small sealed beams like the early GSXR has - and the GS1200SS.

You're right, don't see it, now. May still be available, elsewhere.

I think this is what I was thinking of.......at Motorad Bach.
Click on Bandit 600/1200, and look at the bottom of the page.

That's the one I was thinking of, too.

If I had a 1G, that piece would be on it! I really like that look.

Love the look too. Have e-mailed them to see if they will ship to Oz. Have no idea if they understand a word of english if their translated web site is anything to go by.

E-mail was returned as invalid. Maybe I was right, they don't speak english.

You could try contacting Irfan @ Wild Hair and see if he can still get stuff from Motorrad-Bach...

Info@whaccessories.com

He may have dropped their stuff from his page if it was a slow seller... but he seems to take pride in being a dealer in German-made parts, so Motorrad-Bach fits that bill.

Motorrad list 3 different e-mail addresses.
1 info@motorrad bach.de
2 info@motorrad-bach.de
3 motorrad-bach@t-online.de

No1 was returned, No.3 has not been returned yet, No2 I haven't tried yet.
Nos. 1 & 2 were on the translated site, No.3 was on the original German site.

I can't find an agent in Oz.

Yeah, Irfan did a group buy for the 400 guys a couple of years ago.
That might not be a 'Motorad Bach' item, but is made by some other European company, and just sold by them.
If somebody is really interested, you could contact Irfan, and see if he can get them, how many, and how much.
