Besides the good looks of the HD 1/4 Fairing it does one thing I have not seen in any other similar product that I can recall: it protects the headlight.


That has got to be worth something.

Arlen ness Deep cut Grips
DK Customs Triple trap Foot Pegs
Custom Chrome (Black) Tri Cut Levers
DK Custom HID LED bulb
Off brand mirrors with turn signals. (Black)

I will be either Plasti Dipping or Epoxying the forks and trees, belt guard, rear struts, battery box.

Haven't looked into suspension or a seat yet. Gonna figure those out after i actually have the bike for a bit and op test a few seats.

You got a lot of nice parts. You are going a lot farther than I am in terms of what you are doing with the bike.


For me, I like the stock bars and grips. I don't take long rides, so the stock seat is fine. As are the stock foot controls. My Stage 1 parts all about increasing power a little, improving sound, and allowing the engine to run better. The Superbrace provides a more stability. The 1/4 Fairing will provide some wind protection and protect the headlight.

Just got back from dealership. They have everything on except the HD 1/4 Fairing. They fired the bike up and it sounds great. Will be picking it up tomorrow afternoon. Will be hard to get to sleep tonight.

I'm really looking forward to seeing the 2016 colors (if the 2016 color thread is accurate). I think the LR would look pretty awesome in Cosmic Blue with all the chrome it has.

Cosmic Blue is a nice color. One word of advice regarding other colors is that you may well need to order the bike. Not one dealer out of six that I talked to could get me a LR in Amber Whiskey without ordering one. Only one of those dealers said he could get me a LR in Jade Green without ordering it. Not one dealer I talked to had ever had a LR in Amber Whiskey.


I am hoping to drive my LR home sometime in about 3-4 hours. Camera is charged and ready for pics.

Interesting, we've had a couple of Amber Whiskeys at the local stealership. I don't mind ordering though, I've thought about doing an HD1 custom if I go Street Bob.

The Amber Whiskey's went quick, that's for sure.
