Dare I say I like it? Maybe not a permanent-type thing, but it would make those long road trips a little easier.

I agree. Looks like a good platform for a stero and GPS set-up too.

Not bad looking from that angle (never liked those add on BW fairings, looks wrong on a Dyna) but it reminds me of one of those Honda whatchmacallits.

Finally! I was looking into learning how to use fiberglass to make my own. I agree that as long as it is quick detachable and under 500 clams then I'll definatley get one. Practicality on long trips rules over looks, to a certain point.

I envey my buddy and his road glide but only on long trips.

Ironically I talked to a Memphis shades rep a month ago at our bike show here. He did chuckle and said that they were working on it. I thought he was giving me the brush off but I guess he was right.

Funny thing about that fairing, it looks identical to one that Glenn at Woody's sent me that he was working on. He had designed it and made a fiberglass mold for it but had yet to produce it. He has had most of his designs cloned by several of the more popular larger firms which have them made in China. HMMM.
