I have had a Dead Center Cycles model for over a year and couldn't be happier with it. I would at least consider them.

Dead Center here. Got it 2 months ago, having it painted as I type. At least look at them. If you are interested, PM me and I can tell ya how do buy em at 20% off list. They take ALL HD fairing accessories including standard windshields, something to consider because all detachable fairings are NOt created alike

check out the used fairings from the mid 1980's on eBay. usually around $200. all you have to do is remove the 4 nuts at the quick detach windshield mounts and stick the fairing on. 10 minutes and a whole lot less money.

Dead Center is the only way to go! Best workmanship bar none!I bought one a month ago for my 2007 Road King. Did lots of research and examined several others. Dead Center wins hand down. Oh, did I say it is lockable. That is a great plus when you consider one can stealthe otherswithout the alarm sounding in about 30 seconds without the lock! I'm still trying to get some photos posted, as it looks SWEET!

Bought my Dead Center Cycle fairing a few months ago and I am happy with it. See my sig below and in my gallery. I also bought the dragon wing lower wind deflectors for it. Do not know about other fairings but this fairing fits all Harley OEM windshields and lower fairing deflectors which is a big plus and lockable.

What did you guys pay for your Dead Center Fairings? I would like to purchase one, pending the sound quality of the radio.
