I have an 86 fxrd fairing that I'm going to be installing. It came with a 14" clearview recurve but I'm running 12" west coast Ts. Didn't know if they'll hit the shield or not.

Hard to say how these shields will work with the different aftermarket fairings on the Dynas. I have a BMC fairing and ordered an 11" Clearview with recurve and didn't have clearance. I run 9.5 pullback risers with Big Al's low bend drag bars... I would imagine that if I went back to T-bars it might be worse, depending on height of course. Couldn't run it, but I think it looked pretty good though, see below

I couldn't believe it either!!
Like this is an actual company with relatively good reviews on their products and this is what they're sending out? Also note that there is a start, in progress, but no finished step.
Also note the "how tight?"
