Fairing mounts.
So my new to me 20 year old EG Classic had a nasty shake in the fairing.Checked it out on YouTube and sure enough it's an issue.So today I pulled the outer half of the fairing and sure enough both sides were broken.Welded the tabs back on and added a couple L brackets.Should be good for a while now.Fixed the LH signal indicator bulb while I was in there.All in all a good day.Can't believe how easy this thing is to work on after working on a Wing and a BMW.My kind of bike as I'm more for riding than wrenching.

Being a long time Wing rider(6 of them) I'm actually surprised at how much I like this bike.Pipes are too loud for me but I already have some quiet ones lined up.My cousin has a 98 basically the same and has some stock ones.

Yup simple and easy to fix,also more aftermarket support than anything else out there.
I also fixed the fairing supports on mine.
I spent 20 years and 200,000 miles with a 2000 Electra Glide I bought new.
I'd still have it if I hadn't test ridden 2019 and fell in love with it.

Actually the stockers I got had the holes in the frt and rr baffles enlarged somewhat so they're about half way between stock and what I started with.lol.
