Default 2015 fatbob fairing options
I want a big boy fairing on my 2015 fxdf... I don't want that cheap Memphis shades batwing, i don't want the Japanese modded one either. Has anyone done a road king, street glide, etc fairing on these before? If so how?

Does no one seriously have not a clue? Any fabrication forums anyone i know of that I can visit instead of this... Doesn't seem like there's many solid answers on here about stuff like that. . Seems like it's just guys that do maintenance and that's it on here

What modifications are you speaking of? Grinding out bolt holes? trimming brackets? If it requires welding of any sort I'll have to wait haha

Quite a few of us on here do a tad more than maintenance. Sounds like instead of getting an attitude, give it some time for people to answer. Or if you are so much better at fab work than everyone else here, figure out a solution and share it with the rest of us.

Oh, and a quick look shows BMC, Big Bear etc that make fairings that will work.

Oh and one thing... I already did searching and found that I do not like either of those fairings... in fact that was the reason I posted on here asking about other options... if you have something else to contribute please let me know
