Default anyone running a Memphis shades Road Warrior fairing????

Hey everyone,

I'm on the hunt for a fairing for my street bob. I'm currently looking at several including an FXRT fairing and several other 1/4 fairings. I came across the Memphis Shades Road Warrior fairing and think it may be the best compromise for what I'm looking at. Just curious if anyone had any feedback on them? I'm heading to sturgis next week and am hoping to find something and have it installed while out there.

First post so take it how you will. I bought the Memphis Road Warrior after I tried the junk eBay fairing. The thing about the Road Warrior is that there are so many windshield options and adjustments on the bike, to give any type of opinion would cause a lot of debate. I like mine because it looks dope, but I only have the 7" on. Come fall I want that 15" shield on and I will have to spend a few rides dialing it in.

I'm 5'6" and looking at getting the Road Warrior as well, just can't decide on the windshield height.

EasyLiving,

Do you have some pictures, Ive been trying to find pictures of the 7in shield to give me a better idea of what the bike would look like with the fairing before I order one for my self.

I have the Road Warrior fairing with the 11" shield and almost wish I went with the next size up. Here's a pic with the 11" shield, my bars are 12" tall, so it'll give you a little idea as to the size.
I really like it though, I has an Arlen Ness fairing before this one and the Warrior fairing blocks the wind much better at higher speeds.

That actually looks decent with the taller bars.

Top photos are of 17" shield. I had buffeting with all heights of shield other than the 7" on the bottom. I tried every one I am currently working with Memphis shades on getting a vented 19" made since in 6'4 and the tallest rider this was designed for is 6'

So I pulled the trigger and went with the 11" fairing. I have 10" West Coast MX T-Bars, and I am 5'6". I ride with a full face helmet, and I'm overall pretty satisfied with the windshield height. I would like to try the 9" and the 13" also, but haven't found a dealer near me with demo glass.
