Fairing Question

I have a lady friend riding a 98 Dyna she wants a stereo system. The problem is she doesn't like the looks of the big round speakers with the L&M system. Does anyone know of a good fairing that speakers might fit into? Yeah I know if it will fit the Sporty it can fit the Dyna. Any Ideas?

Don't know what to tell you. There are some aftermarket fairings for Dynas but I don't think any of them will accommodate a stereo.
If she wants a stereo that bad, she can either use an MP3 player with earbuds or buy a bagger.

You may want to search som threads on here about adding a stereo with speakers. There are very few fairing options that you can install a stereo in for a Dyna. Corbin does make a fairing but it is EXPENSIVE. There are some handlebar speakers out there but your results may vary. Someone on here made a powered speaker windshield bag you can plug an MP3 player into. If you just have to do it getting one of the Harleys with a stock fairing will be the best and cheapest option in the long run. Retrofitting can turn into an expensive nightmare. On top of that my personal opinion is a Dyna does not look quite right with a fairing. I recommend getting a full face or 3/4 helmet and installing some helmet speakers that I have seen on Ebay then hook them to a personal MP3 player.

Check with Jackyl he has a stereo enclosure that attaches to the windshield.
