Cut Memphis Shades bullet fairing
[/QUOTE]

@HD_fan

How does the bullet fairing work for you? Does it cut down on the wind buffering and how does it protect you from the rain? Also, do you have a pic of the front on the bike? I'm guessing they are the pics that are not coming up.

Thanks!

Default Seat questions

So I have a question about Slim seats. All the slim seats are listed for 2015 and older or 2016 and newer. Does anyone know what the differences are? the stock seats appear the same. I'm looking to change out the seat and really want the Corbin Gunfighter, but they don't list it for the 2016.

Usually takes customizer time to catch up.
I remember when I got my seat done with the in 2013 for my slim, they had 't yet gotten around to obtaining a doner bike for easurements.
And since I had made my decision for a or in, I waited six months for it

So I'm guessing it has something to do with the FBW throttle control
(cruise control) so maybe the ECM (or other module?) is physically
larger than in the previous models ? I haven't personally looked
under the newer model seats, so again, I'm just guessing...

How 'bout someone with one of the newer models post a pic of
the fame/battery compartment/fender area as well as the bottom
of your seat ?

thanks,

T.

16 and newer have a three-port(larger) ecu, so the seat pans had to be modified to accommodate. Thats right from Lepera.
