Heard a lot of shady stuff about that guy over the years. Glad I went with RWD.
Awesome looking bike!

So glad I found this thread. Been wanting to get an fxrt fairing on my LRS for awhile now. Bunch of damn good looking bikes on her. Time to start scraping for a RWD fairing.

Some beautiful bikes here. I love the style, and I’m sorry if this is covered before, but has anyone put an FXRT fairing on a Wide Glide? I’ve been looking around and can’t find anyone that makes a fairing for the wide glide front end. I’d like to go to the Fat Bob front end set up but I’d only do that if a fairing would fit. Any info and pictures would be greatly appreciated!

Not mine, but here’s a FatBob with an FXRT fairing. Not sure what needed to be done to get it to fit , but I believe there was som bracket modification required. I’m pretty sure some trimming on the fairing itself would be required as well given the forks are wider.

thanks for posting this! I like it a lot and now I’m definitely leaning toward the fat bob front end on my wide glide

hey man I know it's a shot in the dark but bu chance do you still have this bike and can send some pics of how you mounted the turn signals under the fairing? If not do you remember how you did it? Also did you have the trim the fairing at all to fit the tank?

Still have it. Looks a little different now. Here’s some pics of how the signals are mounted. Also, no trimming of the fairing required to clear the tank.

What light pod is that? I have an 04 fxd and my pods have a 5/8" nut on them and mount to a male adapter under the hand controls. Looks like your pod would just have a 1/4" threaded male on it correct?
