Go **** yourself HD. No way that thing should cost that much. Parts guys said cuz it was a painted item. haha.
I'm with ya! I started a thread a couple weeks ago asking about this windscreen. I love it and would be perfect with my setup but 900 bucks!!!!! Even at CHD it will be 720. That's freakin lame, but perhaps someone aftermarket will do something similar.

The fairing is a Arlen Ness Fairing. The bars are made by West Cost T-Bars. I have a bubby that has that same set up on his Dyna. There are a couple different ways of mounting them. Go to the Dyna section and look or ask around and you will get more info.

Clay (Ron Perlman) does not know how to ride a bike.

The bikes on SOA look unusual because the Tee bars are too tall. This CVO Dyna shows a proper looking quarter fairing.

Here's my 02 fxdx which was done 2 years before the show was thought of.

My girlfriends brother owns it now. There are 3 main types of 1/4 fairings
the HD

which is what i had, the dyna T-sport which has a taller windshield,


and the arlen ness.

Right behind the fairing makes a great place to put a hat, and other stuff. An lot of guys have a knife mounted between the bars and faring.

I'd have fired the guy that came up with that bubble fairing look. Looks like something we laughed about years ago and then they just went away....or ended up on a beemer bike... Any hardcore MCs using that thing?? I'm surprised the shows producers (Hollywood) didn't put those long leather grip tassles on those Dynas.

I'm guessing HD didn't donate the bikes for the program. The show probably wanted higher bars on the Dyna's to make them look bad, and then realized that straight bar stock they used looked wrong, and then tried to cover it up with the bubble.
It's not Hollywood. The Oakland CA chapter of HA are mostly on Dynas and many of them have the 1/4 fairing. Here are some photos I took at our last club event.

Here is one parked next to my Fatboy


Farm club for Red & White


This guy is 81


I think the tall T bar makes it easier to pull up
