    The last one appears to be fork mounted, XJ900 Original. The first 2 I believe are the stock fairings after it was found that the fork mounted one caused high-speed instability. All 3 bikes are XJ900's. I have an FJ600 (aka XJ600) and the fairing appears to be very similar, if not identical to the first 2. If you want the last one, as it's fork mounted you could mount it to any bike. The top 2 would require you to mount the fairing stay to the frame, and all bikes may not have the mounting tabs on the frame (usually on the steering 'neck').

    Lower 48 in general. Otherwise Central Mitten.
    The first two pics are of the 750RL with the frame mounted fairing. That fairing is also found on the 84-94 XJ900F along with the 84-85 FJ600.

    Beyond the frame brackets mention above being needed to mount the fairing stay. It will also require the brackets needed to mount the guage cluster.

    That is a nice looking fairing. Any idea who makes it?
