Judging from the looks of the inside and the HD sticker placement on the clear part, that fairing is pre84 FLH (Shovlehead) They were used from 77-84. With mods, it will work on your RK. But with enough time & $$$$ Anything will work on anything.

It is an early Harley fairing. Somewhere around the mid 80's before the inner fairing, gauges and radio. The windshield is probably aftermarket.

Actually, they ran that fairing for quite awhile. My 76 FLH had one on it. They ran it up until they went to the Classic with the radio.

that's the same fairing i have been mentioning that i have anytime someone asks about one of the high dollar aftermarket fairings. awesome early 80s fairing. easy to replace the windshield and to adjust the height. 5 minut install on RKs. easy to find on ebay for about $200.
