Default Windshield/fairing question

I have been looking at windshields and fairing for my 2000 Fatboy since I picked it up a couple weeks ago and almost all I have found are made for the normal round headlight but one of the previous owners installed (I believe) the Freight Train Headlight Nacelle. So I am assuming I am gonna have to take a dremel and trim a windshield to fit over the headlight cowl? Or is there a windshield I haven't come across yet that would fit over it? And yes I am aware that I could just pull it all off but I like the way it looks with it on.

I just added a stock HD windshield to my 2002 Fat Boy and put quick detach hardware on the bike. I do not have the Freight Train nacelle. But I have a new Long Ride Shields shield coming tomorrow. One of the questions they asked was if I had the Freight Train. So if you're interested in new plastic they might have an answer for you. And there's a 15% off sale right now.

I'll have to check them out, I had completely forgot about Long Ride Shields, thank you.

You wont have to dremel anything. Order a RK windshield. I believe all the mounting tabs line up. The one off my 19 fits on the wifes 15 and my Buddy 12 CVO RK fits on my 19. The only difference between the two is the cut out for the headlight. His has the big nacelle mine the traditional bucket. Take you bike for a ride to the dealership and ask to try one of the windshields they have on any bike on yours.
