Has anyone used the quick release clamps like these: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Harley-41mm-...-/111294103341 as the connecting hardware for their batwing fairing? How much weight do you think they will take? I picked up a Tsukayu fiberglass batwing, and although you can quickly remove the fairing...the hardware left behind is really nasty. If the quick release clamps can handle the weight/vibration...i think I am going to go that route.

Comments?

 

I'm pretty sure Mike Horrell mounted his batwing with those clamps. He's done a lot of miles with that setup.

 

Yep, Crazy's right.

Look in my album for pics and look up my (and others) previous postings.. there's TONS of info
on this forum about it.

 

Thanks for the info....Is your batwing a lightweight shell or a full fiberglass inner/outer fairing?

 

Mike's a shell... I don't like radios, etc. when I ride, but those clamps will easily support whatever
weight is involved in a whole media center build-out.

 

I've been using the quick release clamps for various fairings over the last few years, nothing quite as substantial as a batwing though. I'd think you'd want to use four of them. You can also get the lockable version now.
