Unhappy Oh well...

Ok, so I can say for a fact that you can't get the MS Bullet fairing on a Fatboy Lo with the Freight Train nacelle.

The folks at Dennis Kirk were kind enough to work with me on this. The guy in tech support got the parts for a Fatboy fairing brackets and a Roadking version of the Bullet and verify that they fit together. He said that if it didn't work, I could return it, so I ordered it.

Unfortunately, it just doesn't fit over the nacelle. So back to the drawing board.

Anyone know if the MS Batwing fits on a Fatboy Lo with the freight train nacelle and quick release?

There are two options I am looking at. My first choice, I think, is the Memphis Shades Bullet windshield, the other option would be some form of batwing fairing. I need to have a quick release setup.

However, I have swapped out my stock Fatboy headlight assembly for the Freight Train nacelle and I am having a lot of trouble finding out if it will work with either of my options. Memphis Shades lady would only say that they have never tested their product with a Freight Train nacelle.

Any help is greatly appreciated!
Also check out Fork Mount Wind Deflector HD Part #57400143. I have this on my 04 Heritage with Windshield and it really helps.
