Question Fleetliner fairing?

Has anybody installed a Corbin Fleetliner fairing on their Dyna? I'm wondering about wind protection, buffeting, etc.

Can't say as I know of anyone that went with the Fleetliner. But I gotta say, I'd rather go with a Memphis Shades batwing fairing. For less than half the price you can have the same thing the Corbin offers.

I'd wouldn't mind but as far a I can tell it's not available for a Dyna. Thanks for the post.

Yeah you're right about that -- it would take a little modification I should have pointed that out, sorry.

But if you're resourceful it can work and save you some cash at the same time. Just trying to point out a possible alternative. Hopefully someone with a Fleetliner can swing in here and answer your specific question.

On a side note, I hope to be trying out the Memphis Shades (from a Yamaha actually), and if I can figure out a relatively easy way to get it to work I'll let you know.

Not sure about the fleetliner. But I have the Memphis shades fairing for my RK.

You could make it work pretty easily for a dyna. I wasnt happy with the way the brackets fit on the RK and the angle the fairing was at so I just made shims and attachment brackets. 1 piece of 12" flat stainless cut into pieces, some washers and bolts and about 20 minutes with the grinder and I had it set-up just how I wanted it.

Oh, and I can say without a doubt it was the best purchase I have EVER made for any bike that I have owned.

On and off in about 30 seconds and offers great protection with no buffeting.
