Default Front Flairings


Color-Matched Detachable Quarter Fairing Kithttp://www.latus-harley-davidson.com...WX_S_166e1.jpg

Color-Matched Headlamp Visor for Sportster® and Dyna® Model
http://www.latus-harley-davidson.com...KB_S_1a281.jpg

Above are the 2 Front flairings Harley offers (I know the pictures are small, but you can search the Harley website to get a larger one). es anybuddy have one of these and can tell me about them? I don't know which one I like best. And I've never seen one in real life. I'd like to know users feel about them. Wind noise? Wind divergence?

Thanks,
Sean

I went with the visor, on my 2000 sportster I like the looks of it more so than the fairing with the windsheild. My favorite bikes have them the Night Rod, Night Rod Special, and the 03 FXDWG CVO model check paint colors i couldnt get mine already painted from the factory. There is no real change in wind noise or divergence that I noticed, though I had a tough time positioning it just right around the headlight.

good luck

I saw one of those fairings like steg has and thought about getting one, actually the one punisher was selling but I changed my mind. But yours is a really nice looking one, I like it a lot especially from the front.how easy off/on is it?

So, If I had the windsheild docks in place wonder if it would fit right on them? I also have a headlight visor
wonder if that will have clearance? I know you prolly dont know the answers I am just talking out loud. I may get me one tho.
They are badass from the front. If you have a pic of your bike with the whole bike in it and dont mind posting it...

thanks.
