DD Cycle RG Fairing Relocation Bracket
I promptly received my bracket earlier this week for my 2016 Road Glide. Since I had a little extra time last night I decided to installed their bracket instead of waiting until the weekend.
I have not removed the fairing on the newer RG's so I grabbed the service manual for a quick read. An hour and 15 minutes later I had the DD Cycle bracket and hidden antenna installed and everything put back together.
It looks completely factory designed when you look down between the fairing and gauges.
Something that will help install the bracket to the frame is an extended length 1/4" allen socket. You just slip the bracket in between the frame and the fairing and tighten the provided allen socket screws through the original fairing mount holes.
No need for the fairing to engine guard braces after the install as the new RG fairing is solid without them and the little wind deflectors on the outer lower edge of the fairing cannot be used after the install if you have lowers.
A+ for craftsmanship
My bike is in pieces as I'm waiting to complete my engine build so no pictures until later next week when everything is back together.
