Here is a picture of mine. Not sure if I like it, or not.

RE: Front spoiler

i've got one on my 05 fxdl same style that cornel has on his and painted to match color of bike. a bit pricey, does cover that lower engine mount, the the bike is clean and lean only has the low back rest and little leather bag between the backrest and license plate. probably doesn't do jack for aero flow but does make the bike look fast. ride safe.

RE: Front spoiler

I really like the chin spoilers but guys, seriously, you need to learn how to post a link without making the page two feet wide.

When you want to post a link there is a symbol above where you are writing your script that looks like a globe, it is blue. If you move your cursor over it, it will say "insert link" click on it and paste your link in the box that opens up.

Thanks for keeping things easier to read![sm=icon_cheers.gif]

RE: Front spoiler

The fairing and bags came with the bike; it's an FXDXT (Dyna T-Sport) Took me 6 months to find a clean low miles unit andI drove nearly 1000mi one way for it.....I wanted one that bad. For those of you not familiar with the T-Sport; the fairing is bolted to lugs cast into the trees; it's based on the FXDX Sport dyna of a few years ago. I understand less than 5000 of them were made in total from 2000 to 2003. Of course I wanted an '01 or '02 to get the timkin on the drive side for the 103 hop-up I did...I like to ride aggressivley solo or two up and this bike now fits the bill exactly...andI really enjoy snacking on metric twins, too.

'01 FXDXT
103 by HQ; 112hp117tq with 100ft lbs at 220rpm
Excell aluminum rims (4.25X18 rear) with Buchannan stainles spokes (heavy duty rear spokes)
Supthe motor mounts and aluminum swingarm
3 Lyndall composite rotors
620lbs wet weight
all caffien; no calories

RE: Front spoiler

The spoiler tidies up the front end and hides the scruffy engine mounts, but I'm not sure it works with the bags...

RE: Front spoiler

If you get one for your bike, it may look better to get it in the same black as your air cleaner and battery box.

Also, be ready to clean it often, it picks up everything coming off the front tire.
