Default Bikini fairing
Anyone with an FXDLS care to share how the fairing on it is mounted? I love that bikini fairing style, and want to install one on my FXDL but everything I see online is for 39mm forks, mine are 49. Can't seem to find any info or any how-to's for said fairings. Here's a pic for reference:

It requires two tapped holes to in the tree and a bracket that goes below the head light bucket. I swapped mine out with a quarter fairing. So if you are interested in it, let me know and we can work something out

I thought I heard somebody say "bikini".

Sorry. Carry on.

I have one on my 01 fxdl. I like mine, it cuts 80% of wind of me. It needs to be secured from the bottom of the headlight bucket though.
