Can you take pictures straight on and also from the seat?

it looks to me like it comes way too far back towards the rider...

Default More pics please

I'd also love to see what this looks like from the saddle and from the side, so I can see how far back it comes. Where does it mount?

Thanks for your help!

I'm sorry but a fairing does not look good on a Fatboy ... at all.

Here are some pictures of the fairing. Easy to install and looks nice. Did not like the look of the large windshield on the fatboy lo.

Yeah, Not trying to diss your bike, to each their own but it reminds me of the aliens head from the ALIEN movie.

I don't like the standard windshield either though, so maybe I have just not accepted a windshield on a Fatboy Lo. I don't like the detach hardware sticking out either when the standard windshield is removed.

I wear a half shield helmet when I ride my Lo and find that I like that better than a windshield.

I like it! Not my thing, but it looks better than I thought it would, when I clicked on this thread. Very original, too. No other Fatboy owner you see will likely be sporting such a thing. People who do their own thing, don't follow all the latest trends and dare to make their bike different than all the rest, have my respect.

I like that look on the FatBoy. I put a sport shield similar in size on my daughter's Vulcan Custom and it does actually work. Really takes the pressure on the neck and chest area on long rides. She likes it a lot. Looks great.
