I have an 07 road king and i find that this fairing is hard to get on it seems like i have to
widen the brackets more toget it in the slots. Can i bend the brackets out with plyers or
do i have to take the thing apart thanks

 

i have the same problem with mine it seems like there brackets are 1/8 or maybe even 1/4 narrow. i just gently pry them on with a flat head being very careful not to scrach the chrome. But i 've only tacken it off twice since i got it (8months). hope that helps.

 

I did the same thing with the screw driver its a pain getting it back i was thinking of bending
the brackets just wondering if anybody has done it thanks

 

I had the same problem. Here is what I did. I stepped the brackets 3/16". You cannot bend them. I cut the bracket and welded in a 3/16" piece to create the step and then ground and polished the bracket. I did not do it myself. I made a cardboard mock-up and took it to a marine stainless steel fabricator who did it for me. The photo below shows the polished piece and it appears to have been made that way originally.

 

eddie that looks great how much did that run or was it an "i got a friend" type a thing

 

I wish I had a friend like that. It cost me some big $$ (for what it was) butI wanted it right. $250.00.
