Default Gauntlet Fairing
This fairing is listed for Sportsters only. The FXD uses the same forks I believe. Does anyone see any reason why this may not work on a 39mm FXD?

I'm sure it will fit. It may just need a little hillbilly engineering. I mean, you'll never find any two ness fairings mounted the same way.

That is pretty sick, kind of a more stylized HD fairing. Nice mix of the Ness and HD.

It looks small. Compared to the HD 1/4, or Ness fairing. I'd like to see one in person. looks like it runs about $300 when you buy the mounting brackets

I've got 1 on my 93 FXR. If you have 39mm forks, it'll work.

I didn't feel like rigging it up, so I went with the HD one for $318. Already had the mounts for the shield.

$318.95

Way high, but couldn't find one off eBay.

Linkage

I believe there to be a width difference between most sporty narrow glides vs mid glide dynas.
