Default Rifle roadster fairing mockup






Ok here are the pics of my Mockup....Of my Rifle Roadster Fairing, Thanks to Dr V-Twin for becoming a dealer and saving me some money.
Yesterday I rode up to the Easyreider Bike show in Sac.
About a 120 Mile round trip, Felt good not to have that blast of air on my chest and neck "warmer" we rode about an average of 80 and it was nice.
Tomorrow "Monday" I'll remove it and take it to my painter....

looks pretty good! although the top of the fairing can be moved forward a bit. id say 1"-2"? the front headlight doesnt seem to sit right in the opening of the fairing. other than that minor detail it should look pretty sharp! what brand is it?

I presume it will match the color of the rest of your bike. It looks great. The little shield I have has been moved up about as far as it can to reduce the artic blast I get here in NoVa during my winter rides.

Looking forward to seeing the finished product.

I like it!

That is the one I've been considering...can you please get some pics of the back side? Did you do your own mounts or go with Rifle's?

I think I would need the 15" shield. Also considering the Rifle Nightflight...think it would good on a Dnya.

Have you ridden much with it? Waiting for a ride report!

Yes.... I used the mounting hardware Rifle supplied, although I may have a custom bracket made for the headlite.

Yes it will be painted to match, I'll take it off today and take it to my friend to paint.

Saturday I rode with it about 120 miles....Pressure off the chest and neck is warmer.
Yesterday I checked the nuts and bolts for tightness and moved the top forward a little, it helped the wind more....
Over all I luv it, don't really want to take it to get painted....
I also want to put on the National cycle hand deflectors, but I was waiting untill I mounted the fairing to make sure there was clearance for them, there is, so I want to get them next....
With the combo of Fairing and Handeflectors I'll be all set....
