Default Help with fairing

Hello dear friends, I actually have a 01 road king and a friend of mine gave me last month the outer fairing of shovelhead but I want to put it the inner fairng. I found here, in Spain, a guy who sells an electra inner fairing valid for 97-07 models and I want to know if someone put this 2 parts in common and if its fit perfectly, making some new holes or something similar.


Could someone help me?? kind regards and best wishes to all!

the shovelhead fairing will not work with that inner fairing in your picture; that came later. The inner fairing in your picture requires an outer fairing from the same series...1997-2013 I believe.

Shovels did not have an inner fairing. It was only what you have and the mounting brackets.

I have 2 doubts, first, if I decide to fix both parts (outer shovel and inner 97-03 models) to fit more or less perfectly, I have to buy this brackets??

If not, do you know who could sell me the brackets for shovels???

Thanks a lot!!!

I don't think those brackets will work right. If that is a 'real' HD fairing from a shovelhead era FLH, it didn't have an inner fairing.

The brackets you need are here

The ebay link you posted won't work on the Shovel fairing. You will need ones like I posted in the diagram link. You will also need to find a way to attach them to the fairing, your fairing doesn't look like it has mounting points anywhere.

craigffb posted a pic of a shovel style fairing in his reply.
