Hey glock, that setup looks great! How much did the whole setup end up setting you back and have you had a chance to get the bike up to freeway speeds to see how it is with wind and buffeting?

The whole thing was just under $300. Done a few freeway runs and it really helps with the wind blast, provides for a cleaner air bubble around my head, not as much buffetting. Overall I am very happy with the set up.

Nice! I am very interested in picking one up, but I have a 7" headlight bucket. I just sent them an email to see if they might have plans for a 7" headlight version any time soon. If not, I might just swap back to my smaller headlight or see if I can't modify this one to fit my larger headlight. Do you think it would be possible to make the headlight hole larger on one of these?

Would you maybe be down to snap a few more pics, particularly of the inside and mounting setup and email them to me? I just keep seeing the same promo pics online. I so. My email is comacitystudios(at)gmail(dot)com

The Gauntlet was my first choice over the HD, but was told it just wouldn't work on a Dyna. Looks cool and way cheaper altogether than the Conley or HD once you add the aftermarket mount brackets.

Smart move by Memphis Shades. I'll bet they sell a lot of these next year.

Nice setup man. Fairing looks great on your scoot. The Jeep looks great, is that a Magpul sticker I see?

SquidHead, I actually just got lucky getting the custom fork mounts. I had worked with the guy at Memphis Shades on custom mounts for my last bike, as they didn't make the batwing mounts for my bike and he hooked me up. That project turned into a production item as well. Love your bike, has given me ideas for mine!

Love the bike! Are those the factory handlebars and what type of seat are you running? Also is it comfortable for the passenger?

Thanks,
Chris
