and keep my "I'm Done" comment on track.

You do know that with motorcycles, any brand or model, you are never done. Especially with ones so easy to mod as Harleys. Try, just try to do no more to it. I double dog dare ya. tomp dd50

time for an update...
recent adds: a Shotgun Shock, a Motherwell's Solo Rack, a Vance & Hines FuelPak3 (ViED delete), and a power outlet with a USB charger...
I still have a DK tank lift to install if I ever get around to it...

BigBossMan,
Can you please tell me what exhaust that is. I've been looking for something much like that and have not had much success.
I've seen a Supertrapp that's close but it states that it fits 2011 and earlier. I'm not sure of the difference between 2011 and 2014.

My Memphis Shades Batwing fairing came in yesterday. Went out for a 150 mile ride today to give it a try. Really helps out on the super slab blast.
It comes on and off in seconds so when I'm just hopping around I can trim her back down to the marvelous package that came from the MOCO.

Looks killer !! Like the on-off. Still retains the Slims lean mean look as well. Easy initial install ? How much coin ?



Thanks for posting a very cool idea .........

"Fits '12-later FLS and '11-'13 FXS models. Requires separate purchase of appropriate Docking Hardware P/N 53932-03A and Turn Signal Relocation Kit P/N 54296-11. Models equipped with Side-Mount License Plate require Relocation Kit P/N 67900127. Models equipped with a center-mount license plate and fender-mounted reflectors require installation of additional components (sold separately): Red Reflector Kit P/N 67900223 or Amber Reflector Kit P/N 67900224."

The biggest problem with using MOCO's QD products. Takes a ton of additional items, all at extra cost, to complete install. They used to make packaged deals for complete installs, but no longer. Guess too many variables today. tp

Thanks. I like it. Mainly because its not as big as other fairings.

The install is easy. If you've ever done a quick detach windshield its the same setup.
1) Attach the quick detach brackets to the fairing with four acorn nuts.
2) Attach the windshield to the fairing with three screws and acorn nuts.
3) Remove the four screws (two each side) on the fork tins and replace with the
provided grommets and screws.
4) Slide the fairing on to the grommets and lock the trigger lock.

Took less than 1 hour in my lazy pants and house slippers.
Takes less than a minute to take remove.

The cost was $414.00 total from ebay. Had to buy fairing, windshield and brackets separate all from one guy, partsvenue, but that is the cheapest I have found.

If interested type in 23300017 in the ebay motorcycle parts and accessories search and you should find it from there.

I'm only 5'4" so I bought the 5-1/2" spoiler windshield and its a perfect fit. The wind goes right over my head and I see over the shield. I might need a taller one for two up touring. Haven't had the wife on yet. Still have to put the Mustang seat on.
