Hey Rockon, I'm getting ready to change mine over soon to a different fairing so I'll sell ya my ness fairing for pretty cheap. It's the wide glide style from their website. Just throwing it out there, if your interested hit me up with a pm bro.

I got the hd one on order. I like the ness one, had it for about a year, just want a change. Got to start getting some stuff cleared out of the garage, starting to get crowded, haha

Good info, thanks.

That's something they didn't mention for whatever reason...something else I noted, but they didn't mention, is that they relocated (hidden LEDs) or completely removed the front turn signals, because they're nowhere in sight.

I didn't see anything about those trees at Chassis Design, any idea what they charge?

Thanks for the info all around fellas, you guys rock.

The Signals were removed altogether. In the future the bike will be getting a set of MBW signals that attach onto the fork legs.

I talked to Anthony at CD and he will have the top trees finished for production mid-Jan. He said they would be between $150-$200 depending on the finish. That's about 1/2 price from the OE H-D unit.

They aren't cheap though.

Watch Fleabay...last set of superglide trees on there went for under $100 for both with the stem.

I'm watching, ready to ditch my stupid SB trees.

Rockon, did you ever get this fairing and get it installed? I recently got a '12 Street Bob and was thinking of putting the arlen ness fairing on it and was also wondering how it helped with wind at highspeeds. Also, how tough was it to install? What all did you end up changing out? I still have the stock mini-apes on it and I think I am going to keep those as is.
