Heritage fairing
I'm redoing me earlyer question because I don't think I explained my self very well. I'm trying to see if I can put a older fairing off an flh with the cut out headlight opening on my Heratige. I want it removable so I can put me windshield back on after my long summer trips. If this is possible I was hoping to find a used one since it would only be on a coulpe times a summer and a lot cheaper.

RE: Heritage fairing
I just got finnished with installing a 2003 fairing on my Road King.
Used the outer fairing and machined round stock to match a factory quick disconnect windshield bracket. That was a little tricky but turned out perfect.
I had the inside sprayed with Line-X and then painted the outside to match my bike. Installed a 7" windshield from Sin State Cycles but also had to machine a strip on the inside of the fairing to hold the backside of the windshield.
I love It. Probably never use the stocke windshield again and loaned it to a friend for his RK Classic.
Also had to move my running lights to the foward hole.
PM me it you have any questions.

RE: Heritage fairing
The fairing was off a 2003 Ultra and yes I did use a die grinder and dremmel to remove the bottom portion of the fairing so it would come just to the bottom of the headlight. I have the trim rings on my passing lights and headlight, about 2" and I also trimmed the sides and top a little.
The angle of the fairing matches the same as factory.
Like I said before, I just took my time and got it perfect.
If I can ever get my wife to take some pictures I will post them.
Hope this helps.
