Hey guys! If I were to get a fairing for my Roadking, what kind of options/accessories would you suggest and why? Any input would be greatly appreciated!

I am not looking for a brand. I am looking for suggestions for options. IE: GPS, gauges, ya know - the bells and whistles.

Radio and GPS was all I had on my Dead Center Fairing.

Most makers will have different stereo options or a plain-Jane (no stereo) version. That's it. From there, the user can add whatever, like a GPS, storage bag, gauges, etc.

Like someone else said, you have a popular fairing maker near you. You can take a look at their offering to get an idea.

I'm getting one delivered this week...hopefully. It's a plain-Jane.

Ummm,im pretty sure the OP is a representative of Reckless Motorcycles. Sounds like she's asking for customer input - you know, "What can we do to give you a good product?".
