Does anyone know if a yakima/thule type roof rackhttp://images.intellitxt.com/ast/adTypes/2a.gif (http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/showthread.php?p=26403425#) wind fairing will fit a 1999 OBS with
stock rails and crossbars? If it does fit how would you mount it?
thanx,
kdub

i have a thule rack system and i had to get the universal cross bars to use the faring. so basically the cross bar attaches to the stock ones on your obs then you attatch the fairing to that. you would think it would sit really high but it doesnt, works really good
this is the only picture i can find that shows it from the side

I believe that the Yakima front fairing also uses the factory rails. If yours are elliptical then you just need to get the elliptical clips to attach it.
