Modified one to fit my Street Bob. The bracket is not made for current later model Dynas it may still work on Sportsters.

what did you have to do to modify the fairing to work because i saw it said it was for 39mm tubes not 49mm

I had to cut the bracket and extend the mounting tabs here is a shot of the bracket extensions in early development. I had to shorten and reshape them a little, I would take a pic of the finished bracket but my bike is in the shop.
