Default Quarter Fairings

Hey all,
I'm looking to put a quarter fairing on my 08 super glide for 2 primary reasons, primarily to give my chest a lil bit of rest considering I ride 50 miles one way to work on the interstate. the other, for looks. I've done a TON of looking around, but seem to be finding the same stuff... the HD acc is kinda ugly and a smidgeon over priced, the Ness is sharp looking, but thats about all i've really seen... any other ideas and place to see them would be much appreciated
thanks yall
RJ

Heres my 08 FXDC with Rifle Roadster Fairing.
In the picture I have the 15" clear Shield, I now have the 18" Dark.
It's a good functional Fairing....Longest trip so far 1225 one way.
The fairing also comes with it's own mounting hardware....
And I bought mine thru Dr. V-twin and saved some cash....

Rifle roadster with dark grey bubble windshield. The nice thing about the Rifle is the windshields can be inter-changed. Bubble in town, taller one on long trips.

I bought mine for Dr-V Twin also. Then had it painted...

Ya, i do like that look after seeing it closer up... Stupid question PR... it looks like its a factory setup on your bike, but if not, howd you get the tach and speedo on there like that? I want to install a tach but still having to do a lot of figuring out how to keep the idiot lights on there with the speedo, do a bar change, etc... its kind of a cluster lol

My gauges are stock so it all fit.

When you add a tack kit I think you get a new gauge housing for twin gauges. This also has the same idiot light holes and your original lights and speed-o just mount in along with the new tach. If you change bars or risers as long as the original guage mount works the twin will...

On mine I did use a 1 3/4 riser lift, but used original bars. I liked them.
