The problem with aftermarket fairings is no speedo, tach, and extra guages (fuel, air temp, oil pressure, voltage), additional warning/indicator lights, etc. We happen to like those features.

I have seen the memphis shades and thought it looked pretty darn good from the front- about $400 in black-

That paints a funny mental picture.

My Heritage looks nothing like a Heritage...looks like a Street Glide with a Sportech fairing and hard bags.
