For sure. We have March of Dimes Bikers for Babies here in Kansas City this Sunday and my wife and I are riding in it. So I'm going to ride solo with it Saturday and then she'll put on about 150 miles or so on Sunday on it with me. So after Sunday I'll be able to give everybody a good review of it both solo and a review from passenger perspective. I'm hoping my wife really likes it because then I can sell my HD sundowner and put it towards a custom fastback for myself. I'm also having my backrest redone in the same diamond stitching to match the seats
Well I did a little more tweaking. Not sure if it noticeable to you all but I got the fairing back towards the bars some and got the headlight to sit better in relation to the fairing
i also slightly adjusted the guage set up to be overhanging the screen a bit more
all in all I like the stance of it better.
Next is to get the low rider tach and harness to get a full Mickey Mouse set up on the bars
after looking at the pics. I need to move the headlight to the left a smidge and up a smidgen to get it fully centered in the fairing

That looks good man. I keep trying to decide which fairing to get and your bike keeps pulling back over to the ness fairing. I don't know if you have a line on a low rider harness and tach but when I did mine I couldn't find one and wasn't going to pay 150 for a new one. I got a sportster tach off eBay because it's the same part number and just bought the plug and built it and soldered it into the speedo harness. It works great as long as you look at the top of the plug and see how it's numbered and don't wire the plug backwards. Ended up costing me 75 total. If you were up for that I figured I would just throw it out there.
How did you mount that ness fairing?
Ive been having nightmares mounting one on my 01 FXDX. a lot of trial and error raising the headlight brow, having to trim the fairing so it doesn't contact the tank when turning the front forks and then fastening the fairing to some turn signal mounts with rifle fairing struts. Major pain in the ***.
I have never been a big fan of the louvred Ness but that looks wicked on your bike!
Where did you find a solid battery cover? I took the grey band off mine but of course now the holes are showing and a couple scuffs from the band as well.

Yeah, I agree, that Ness fairing looks great on his setup. Very clean, and well tucked in.
That battery cover is standard issue on the FXDB from I think 2012 and up. Here's the part number.
