Original factory GTR's color's "BLUE"?

[slawsonb]

Gene, I'm assuming from the ? that it was this color when you got it. Vely Intellestink! (I hope all remember Laugh In...yes, I'm old).

Here's a "Blue" 350 from 1974:

WOW.... it matches the trailer!     

[paul]

Thats not a trailer. It is a MANUFACTURED HOME.

[moonpup]

I stand corrected. 

On a side note... I'd hate to step out of that door after I've had a few beers!

If it ever had wheels and a hitch, it's a trailer.

  Bert    Ya It Was Blue   It Came With A Spare Side Cover Also Blue   You Never Know   GENE

[OldSwartout]

If it ever had wheels and a hitch, it's a trailer.

It still had it's wheels behind the skirting and a hitch, so it definitely was a trailer.

Thankfully, I never fell out that back door.

Some of the best memories of my youth involve a residence such as this one and the girl that lived inside.

HaHa... I stand UN-corrected!

Gene, what year is your Blue GTR?

[Colin]

Love the go faster stripes on the faring and oil tank 

[slawsonb]

of course, to reduce wind resistance.

Not sure I like powder blue on any bike never mind a GTR, however I would have liked to make my 1967 GTR a nice titanium colour over the chrome, you know that colour it's darker than a silver but not by much, but alas it's going to be RED !!!! 
And only in case I need to sell it on, because being any other colour would make it less attractive to the sort of people who would want to pay me lots and lots of money, I might even have some Japanese air shipped over in a bottle so I can inflate the tyres with it 

[slawsonb]

I think if you inflate the tires (sorry for the incorrect spelling) with nitrous oxide, you can rig a way to release it when the high rollers are perusing the bike. That should assure you top dollar as they will be laughing all the way to the bank!

  Bert     The GTR Is A 68   2800 Miles Runs & Drives Great   Needs Frech Crome &  Paint   Need One      GENE

That fairing did need something to reduce the wind resistance, it was close to a barn door in airflow efficiency, but it did keep me a lot warmer riding to work in the fall and winter.  I always took it back off in the spring and summer.

One of these days, I'd like to get a second GTR running, then outfit it with that fairing and a set of saddlebags.  I don't think it'll get that paint job, though.  

[Colin]

Hi Bert,
Nitrous Oxide eh 
Might be that's lighter than air too so the wheels would weigh less and then the bike would be faster, just need some of those stripes and I would be in GP's 

[slawsonb]

Colin, that is a benefit of nitrous I had not considered!

Karl, sounds like you are considering a GTR Dresser. Not sure I've ever seen one all the way decked out...I remember the Vetter Windjammers were really popular for a while before manufacturers started offering them as standard equipment. The shape of your fairing is reminisent. What variety is it?...

...bert

[Colin]

Hi Bert,
I think this might be the info you want on the faring, cutting edge in it's day.
