Default Batwing and lower fairing for Deluxe?

I am thinking that I would like a batwing and lower fairing for my Deluxe. Anyone know who might make such a thing? I've seen a few upper fairings on the net, but nothing as good as those on the touring models.

It would be great to have an upper fairing that use the quick-connect hardware that the windshield uses...

Any help?

Thanks!!

Not exactly an inexpensive upgrade! Plus they only seem to list RK and Heritage.

No, it fits the Deluxe also------also; there's a pic of a deluxe with Road King bags and the fairing. Looks nice!

Thanks for the links. I like being able to strip down the Deluxe to a single seat and no bags for cruising but then easily load it up when I need it. Seems a fairing would just make the longer rides a bit smoother.

I've been guilty of looking with shameful envy at the street glide simply because I wish I had a radio for the long trips (and, of course, the fairing is a definite comfort upgrade). But when I initally read the posts I thought "why in the world would you want to do that to a Deluxe - it couldn't possibly look right with a fairing!!??" Then I saw the pics at the sites provided. Amazing... they actually look great.


Don't expect I'll ever part with the Deluxe now!

I have been thinking of putting a fairing on my Fatty for trips as well. I like the sport fairing from Hoppe Industries but have not seen one in person yet to check the quality. Anyone have one?
