Default 2011 Road Glide Upper Fairing?

Does anyone know what part I need to revert this Dirty Bird Windshield Eliminator piece back to stock so I can put a windshield back on? I wish I could just add a windshield but from what I was told I need to get the stock upper fairing but I have no clue what the part# is, what it looks like, etc. and the seller does not have it.

Default It’s removable

https://dirtybirdconcepts.com/produc...-2015-to-2020/

per the Dirty Bird website, the piece is removable. Bolts together from the inside. Unless the previous owner molded it in to the upper fairing it should be as simple as take off the upper, unbolt the dirty bird parts, then get a regular old windscreen of your choice.

It is a 2011, with newer Road Glide fairings.

Cool, it currently has the Dirty Bird Windscreen Eliminator but that one may be better.

The new fairing is why I asked. I don't think I've ever seen that done before. Kinda wish I hadn't looked at it now!

Looks like the Dirty Bird Speedster. It replaces the OE top duct assembly, which is available in vivid black, or black denim.

Thanks much. I found this for sale here, off a new 2020 Road Glide Limited - seems like it will fit, huh?

It should fit any Road Glide fairing from 2015 to 2020. For some odd reason, none of my parts resources are listing a part number for the 2020 Road Glide Limited, although the part numbers for the 2020 Road Glide (denim) & Road Glide Special (gloss) are listed, and those part numbers (posted above) haven't changed since 2015.

You're also going to need item # 23, if you don't have it, and it's not included with the sale you've found.
