Pichler Fairing Value?

I picked up an '86 R65 this fall with a Pichler fairing on it. It's black with a red and white pin stripe to match the striping on the tank and side covers. I'd give it a "pretty good" score for appearance. There's a few scratches and one small area that's been repaired.
I'm debating on whether to keep it on the bike or convert the bike back to being "naked".
I can't find much info on Pichler fairings other than they are fairly rare.
Does anyone have a suggestion on what would be the value of this fairing?
Anyone interested in it? I have photos.
I am located in northwestern Illinois.
Thanks, Geezergolfer56
 
I suspect that most people who own/ride R65 motorcycles prefer a naked bike to a fully faired one. Add to that the fact that there just are not very many R65 bikes still in use. I think the net result is that the market for that fairing is pretty slim. And a slim market means that it isn't worth very much. Maybe with luck the one buyer who has been lusting for a fairing for his/her R65 might appear but in truth, I really doubt it.
 
If anyone on the forum has interest in this, please conduct any business/contact offline please!
