Default reckless fairings

Just got mine today and have it on my bike. Red Hot Sunglo with the sounds and it is great. Would buy from these guys again. I now have a FLSTN bagger. Very happy with the way everything worked out. Will post some pixs soon.

How about some pics. I am thinking about going the same route. I'd like to see how it looks. Sounds great.

I have the same one, and like it.

Let me ask you something though, is your inner fairing painted red or black?

Thanks

Can't go wrong if you do a lot of long distance like I do. Real happy with this. Ordered the complete package. Easy install.

Painted in and out. Looks good. Fit is good. Dose the larger front wheel help much with ground clearance ?

Can you take some pics?

Did they paint it, and did you ask for it inside and out?

Front wheel feels the same as stock

The fairing I bought was one that was already painted. I call the woman on the home page and talked to her and after looking around, it was clear this was a deal and everything she told me was right on. I posted photos on my album page. Don't know how to post them any where ells.

I had an Ultra. Loved the bike but it was just too tall and I keep dropping it. Softail is easy to handle and now it is almost like riding my Ultra. NOT. But at least I don't drop it and I have put on thirty plus K and it works for me. It's all in what you want/need.
