Default Batwing 85 FLTC

I've been working on a 85 FLTC for a year and a half bring it back to life and it currently is running a windshield. If anyone knows of where I could get a batwing for it original or aftermarket could you let me know. Thanks

there's tons of aftermarket ones out there. Dragonfly makes a nice clean looking one you can order with a stereo installed ready to go....don't think they are cheap though. I was looking at them when I was considering getting a switchback... if you find a good deal on a used one you can probably get mounts or make them to use it. a big factor in cost an complexity is if you want to move your gauges an stuff to it or if you just want to add a fairing.

I got lucky and came across an early '80s batwing, which I now have on my 1990 FLHS. I suspect a lot of patience and eagle's eyes on the ads could find a real one! There is a classified section in HDF, which is worth taking a look at, even placing an ad.
