Either of you end up getting a fairing to work on your bike?

Not yet, I got side tracked with changing the front and rear fenders lol. Now I'm on orders to move to Hawaii so I don't figure I will need one for a while since there isn't much room to tour on an island, and the weather is perfect year round. Still would love to see it done though.

I was wondering same thing but no one seems to have done it.. the big deal seems to be the headlight which is kinda dumb cuz to do this mod one would expect the headlight would be changed out for a 7" like a glide and a new lower mount would have to be fabbed to drop the headlight down into position still no big deal but how is it going to look when removed. maybe not so good so if it is done you probably have to consider it an alwasys on fairing with the quick detach more for cleaning the anything else.. im really thinking of doing this just to prove it can be done and ill show you why..ive got the rest already mounted only thing left is to go batwing

Default Springer Fairing

In the Detroit, Michigan area. "Oak Park Mark' at Bad Pig Customs in Hazel Park (just north of Detroit) Modified a fairing, and fabricated a mount for me.

The fairing was a batwing from The Trike Shop, with Road king brackets, also from The Trike Shop. (Ordered through J&P Cycles).

Considering all of the work that had to be done, the price was very reasonable.

Why don't you just get one from the MoCo?

Oh wait, you mean a Batwing fairing. Nah, I don't think I'd do that. Wouldn't look right and it might make the springer a little squirrelly. That's a lot of weight to dump high up on the front end. Especially with a lot of wind pushing it around. But that's just me talkin'.
