Nice setup. I was riding up in Ventura last two weekends and there are so many people with that setup up there. Good tutorial, I sent it to a customer who just bought that setup.

Not gonna pretend its like sitting behind a bat wing or anything but its much better.

Sorry been gone for a few days so I'm gonna answer a few questions in a row. Hey shark if you raise your fairing and headlight a bit you'll take much less wind buddy. If your not Mr.Engineer take it to a welder he'll hook it up show him my pics.

The Screamin Demons!!!!! Yeah we got a support club here as well called the demons and they're all cool heads and LOVE TO RIDE!! those kids are all about riding man I hang out with quite a few of them actually. There's a bunch of us that all practice wheelies together. Hey dude if you want man we can probably work something out to get you a fairing/headlight mount set-up if your interested. I might be able to find a bike to fit it on then just ship it to you with instructions. You'll be the only one with the OG set-up out there!

Yeah dude it's in our blood out here. I hate when people say sh!!t like this but that style was supposedly started in Ventura back in the early 90's by "The Club". I remember as a kid all the Boys had that set-up and actually the full season on DVD of SAMCRO says that it was adopted from a style made popular in Ventura, CA. Neat bit of trivia huh?

Thanks Man but I think I've got it in the bag.

I bought a piece of aluminum that I'm reworking to raise the HL up a total of 4" and out 3/4 to 1"
Just working with it in my spare time since work has been busy and the weather is rockin at the moment I've been running around with a big fat smile and not sitting in the garage.
When I get around to having the fairing painted I'll polish up the bracket and remount the whole deal-eo to have it set up just riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight.

I think it will be legit for sure.
