Same forks almost?
All that is needed is the width if triple tree to be about the same

Isnt the road glide fairing frame mounted? It doesnt move when you turn the forks. Easiest solution might be to buy a roadglide.

If it is frame mounted take a look at one and see what is involved.
I would have to imagine you might have to drill a hole or two..but it would go is my bet.

There is a bracket welded to the frame right where the steering stem goes through. This way it stays straight as the forks turn side to side. At least thats how it is on the bike in the garage with a simular fixed fairing.

if it isnt then it would have to connect to the gas tank somehow. I dont see that as possible.

This is along the lines of what I’ve seen company’s offer, it bolts onto the frame in place of the welded bracket. They offer them for multiple bikes I just haven’t found one for a super glide. https://www.hotbikeweb.com/street-bo...you-how#page-7

He could but it will need to be done by someone who knows what they are doing. Heat control is key and any excess metal may end up in the steering stem. It actually wouldnt be that hard to do but it will take some time and the added weight up front imho is never a good thing. The wiring is next as with dual headlights and guages a whole roadglide harness is probably the easiest route.

It would be a POC.
But I am not even sure why he asked the question now, as he posted a link to it all being done............

Glad you weren’t a **** and seen that the link I showed wasn’t the model I own and that’s why I was asking for help
