Default Hate Machines Fat Bob fairing?

I've been looking at fairings for the Fat Bob for many moons now. There's the very (probably most) popular Dougz that I've seen that some were painted awesomely. There's the one Phil Berch of the Netherlands makes that I've seen on a hand full of bikes along with Conley's. And of course the single headlight swap to get more fairing options. I've seen the Hate Machines Stalker fairing literally on 2 bikes that are only on their website. I like the fact that it's a taller fairing, it looks like it would block more wind than most other Fat Bob fairings but I'm wondering why I don't see it around much. Is there something I don't know or am I just looking in the wrong places?

Thanks,
Red

Not to sure why? But I bought my fatbob for the looks and I think that adding a fairing takes away from that some.

If if a fairing was wanted there's plenty of Harley's that come with them like the soft tails and touring models. Just saying ✌️

I hear you guy's and agree. I have seen some with Dougz fairing painted up though that look mighty fine to me, though I do prefer it like my women: Naked! I just noticed that I cannot find much about the Hate Machines fairing out there. I would like to have something to cut the wind when it's cold and I prefer the fairing to a windshield. Thanks for chiming in though!

Post a pic. I've never seen a pic of one on a Fat Bob. I'm looking into the same but for different reasons. My ears have become really sensitive to wind noise. I hate earplugs and the look of most windshields. I haven't found a helmet that really helps either.

Fairings are for guys with "Olive Oil" arms. Most just use em to hide t bars anyways. Ear plugs are a must though if you value your hearing at all.
