Default NightRod fairing

I picked up a Night Rod fairing from Mascman a few weeks ago and finally got to put it on. I've been wanting to try one on my bike for awhile. I kinda like it. I built some brackets awhile back to extend my headlight out from the trees, might need to remove them now with the fairing on. Everyone has an opinion, lets hear um.

Looking just a tad too much like a SOA wanna-be?

F*cm SOA! Don't get me wrong, love the show, but contrary to popular belief; not every Dyna with T bars or a fairing are SOA knockoffs. *rant over*

Dude, that looks good on there! I would try to tuck it in tighter if it were me, but it looks great. Good job!

I like it. Looks much better than those Ness fairings imo. Nice and compact.

Oh dang, another SOA rant........ Wow, anytime anyone has anything that even resembles SOA, the so-called "purists" go nuts!

Anyway, I think it looks great, really flows well with the lines of the bike. Nice work.
