I changed the inner fairing on my 2014 SG. It is only a facia and I don't think anything at all like on an 09 model. I did type up a guide on how I did it which I have attached. I later bought the workshop manual and found I had gone about it the correct way. It took me about half a day working it out for myself but like anything I could do it quicker if I were to do it again.

We need a sticky in the Rushmore section. You may have just volunteered to do a write up complete with pictures. LOL

I watched Paul do mine in just over an hour. He said it was his second 2015 Road Glide. Its amazing the stuff you can leave on.
