Those are very kewl pieces. AJDobbs as long as it came off an 1800C it will fit. It is my understanding that the 1800 & 1300 are different. Meaning the cowls and brackets are different. This is what mine looks like. I hope these pics help make your decision. When I removed my windshield and put on the cowl, I was accused that I got a new bike!! It definitely changes the look.
I think if its a 1800 model you can put it on any 1800. Ive bought them for all kinds and have never had a problem. You can even modify the mounting bracket to fit a type 2 or 3 with chrome fork covers by just drilling 1 hole and removing a small amount of material where the bracket will mount around the chrome fork cover (about 10 min work.)
The cowl is very cool looking. Gives the VTX a great look. I'm assuming it doesn't give much wind protection when you are blasting down the road. Am I correct in my assumption?

I would say that normally you would be correct, but I think that curved 'lip' on it is supposed to push the wind up over the rider, so it doesn't hit them in the chest or face. There are quite a few windshields with that flip. I've been told by those who have them that they work really well. too.
I agree $350.00 is a good price for this hard to find cowl, you may drop the price a little because someone my have to paint it if their bike is not silver.?
Damn. I'm shocked this didn't sell faster. People, this is an extremely hard to find item, and compliments the bike incredibly. I LOVE my cowl, always getting compliments on it. If I had the money, I'd buy this as a spare in case anything were to happen to the one I've got!
Good luck on the sale!
If no one takes it, I'll buy the detachable laminar lip off you. $350 is a hell of a deal, and no doubt you could sell this thing for $350-375 without that lip.
