nope I kept the wing thing's and added this to prevent and lift. However if I was to buy it all new. I would buy (2) sets of turn signal relocation things and do it that way. those wing things suck.

Looks good, I also used turn signal relocation brackets to remount my rifle fairing. I got the idea from someone else on the forum.

Yes I got the idea from another thread, and asked to post up the results

I am fairly sure it is this fairing ( ness narrow glide with louvers) it was on the bike when I got her.

I really like the look of that fairing. I'm on the hunt for a quick detach fairing that I could use for longer rides. You know of any Q/D brackets that might work with that one? A little modification is no problem.

Fairly sure you could get away with the "narrow glide" windsheild q/d brackets

something like this

I'm about to do the same thing, but I was just curious if you needed to move the headlight at all? it seams like it would need to be set out farther from the forks. In your signature it looks like the headlight is set in a ways but its hard to tell. Also, what are the options for handlebars? Why does everyone use high T-Bars? I think I'd like something lower like moto bars or tracker bars.

My "t bars" came with the bike, along with fairing. First thing in my mind I needed to chance were those items, I wanted some "chumps" and 1 inch risers, forwards and go back to jockey shift.
However I promised my wife I would change nothing for a year. Well I am in in love with the mids and the t bars the fairing is nucking futs in my mind, very comfortable to ride with. Only change I plan on is an better exhaust, and t bars with internal wiring options.......so about a grad more

Nope stock headlight, stock position lights up just fine. I plan on adding some LEDs to the highway pegs later this year for better night vision..........
