Thanks all!
Now I see and I've found the part used from motorworks for 10£
partnr: STR32240 or new from motobins for 17£.

But I'm still wondering if I should go this route or go the airbear route and go for an Acewell and a chinese bucket. The latter is what I really want, but then there's the money... In the first route I still have to sort out where to put the ignition. Don't want the original ears, got some aftermarket ones, not sure if I can fit it there...

As you might see there's winter and snowy here and the roads are full of salt and slush....

Thanks, Jeff! That's a really nice project and quite similar to what I'm up to. ;)

I left the Pichler box with switch and mounted the instruments to the front of it with a homemade metal bracket. I used an aftermarket bucket, reflector and ears. I hope to get tag this month and actually ride it on public roads. Getting rid of the fairing makes the bike a whole new machine-one I hope I will enjoy far more than the full-faired one.
