Default Painted Inner Fairing

Very early this morning I met with Paul Barber while on the road with his family from Jacksonville, Fl. to Americade (Lake George, NY) and then to Laconia, NH so he could install a newly painted inner fairing. Perfect match Crimson Red Sunglo. Normally a 45 -55 min to remove a stock inner fairing and replace with a painted one. Bikes such as mine with fairing mounted GPS and oil temp gauge takes about 20-30 minutes longer. Great guy and great product. Examples of his work can be seen on his facebook listing "Painted Harley Fairings".

What's the vertical item on the right side of the handlebars, in front of the speaker? Looks like some sort of antenna.

XM antenna. used on road trips as reception is much better than a hidden one; especially in the hills or heavily treed areas.

Ok, makes sense. Is that a MoCo part?

Unknown. I'm second owner. Already installed when I bought the bike. Never crossed my mind to ask.

Paul is without out a doubt the best bang & quickest installer for sure!

Did you meet him off I-95 around Emporia or on the coast?

Bike looks complete with the inner painted. I truly feel that's the way they should come from the MoCo, as much as these things are costing now a days!!!


Enjoy the New View & Ride!
