Default Lower fairing installed
Photos of my lower fairings installed ... I just had to trim a little of the bottom edge to fit around the Softail brackets I'm using.

I'm ready for the rain now!

no offense man, but all your pictures you post are so dark you can't see anything. I'd like to see what you have done with the bike too.

Yeah ... my camera sucks. The sun was up and I thought there might be enough light in the garage. I'll post some photos you can actually see in another day or so. Sorry to keep you in suspense!

I took it out for a little ride this afternoon ... it was nice and sunny, but you could really tell the difference.

Yeah! Quick detach ... just nine bolts and the entire thing is gone!

I used a Touring engine guard, so the lower fairings just bolted right on--three bolts each side. (Three bolts on the engine guard.)

I think the only reason I was able to use the Touring engine guard is because the lower bolt holes lined up with my Softail floorboard mounts. Ha! Guess that paid off ....

They did make my commute much more comfortable this morning in 37 degree weather ....
