So, is it a CX or a Silverwing?  Similar engines, different bikes.  the wings had their own Hondaline luggage/Fairings.

Most full fairings on CX's I've seen are Vetters.  They have vents in the WS to allow airflow.  The other option is just a detachable WS, then you can go with or without depending on the weather.

Watch Ebay, and the selling forum here, you see them fairly often.
