Default Rifle roadster on narrow glide anyone?

Looking for a 1/4 fairing and really like the looks of the rifle roadster (07bobber's pics come to mind, and a few more)

However, I havent seen any on a narrowglide (I have an FXDX) and wondering how it looks...anyone have any pics? I'm afraid the bottom of the fairing will look too wide compared to the forks. Otherwise, those who have them...do you like it? What size shield and bars? How's the wind blockage? Any complaints?

PhotoRider has the Rifle Roadster on his FXDX.

I think it is a bit wide, otherwise I would have one, but it looks pretty decent

the roadster is about the same width as a fxdxt fairing and they have the same forks as you

so hard to decide! they all look pretty good, but its a decent amount of coin for me to buy one and like a different one better. Any opinions on the different ones? Maybe quality, customer service, usefulness? Pictures? Any help, thanks!

I like the roadster fairing on the 49mm but not sure how it would look on the 39mm. you can find the HD 1/4 fairing on CL cheap, I got mine for $100 and just had to paint it. also I am not a fan of the Roadawgz lip, here is my bike with the Laminar

Check out the Memphis Shades gauntlet fairing. Just put one on my 93 fxr & I couldn't be happier. I'll try to get pics up later.
