I posted a thread a while ago asking about fairing lowers, so now I'm getting back to looking for a set and realize I didn't specify that I want a set for my '08 FLTR. There are plenty available for electra glides and streetglides, but not so for road glides.

Has anyone bought aftermarket lowers for their fltr? I just got back from the stealer, they want $850 for the set plus another $500 for the glove boxs. There's got to be a better way.

 

Buy on Ebay and send to the paint shop. Maybe 3 hundred....

 

I had Hogg Chopps on my 07.

 

Did you like the hogg chopps? They're a little bit different style then the hd ones I think?

 

I bought my lowers on ebay from a harley dealer...$385 shipped

with glove boxes

 

If you get the 2010 main fairing brackets that lift the back a little,for your Road Glide you can mount the vented lowers from any Ultra Classic.Otherwise your lowers choices are limited.

When I was looking for the lowers, I did not find many options. The only thing I found were:

Hogg Chopps
OEM from dealer
OEM off Ebay

I did not locate any other aftermarket lowers for the pre-'10 RG's.

I managed to pick up a set of color matched off Ebay for $250 (no glove boxes). You may have to watch for a week or two before you find a deal.

There have been some good reviews on the Hogg Chopps, I just did not care for the look.

 

In the process of adding HD lowers to my 09 RG. I just installed the 2010 brackets yesterday so I could use the vented fairings.I got them from LSHD1;

1 58530-10 MTG BRACKET,FRNG @ $60.16
1 58454-10 MOUNT,LH/FRNG-LWR @ $39.44
1 58460-10 MOUNT,RH/FRNG-LWR @ $39.44 $139.04 + $9.99 shipping

Just ordered the fairings,58854-08xxx, today from LSHD1 for $529 shipped.

I live near Hogg Chopps and wanted to go that way, but you can't get glove boxes for RG versions.

Ok, just so I understand. The 2010 bracket raises the back of the fairing. But its still sitting on the front mount.do it must be tilted a bit? If so the headlight will need to be aligned and it will change the angle of the windshield. I wouldn't want to effect the aero dynamics of it. I'm happy with the way it is. I'm worried about screwing it up.

 

Hi mike, as per my previous post. What's the downside?
