Fairing Install on RK

I Don't have the $$ to get a SG, looking at putting a HD fairing on my '02 RK. I have checked the Dragonfly, Dead Center, Firebagger etc. They all sit different than the EG, Ultra, SG stock fairing. Plus I don't care about removing it. What I want to know is can it fir with RK speedo and do I need to remove RK Nacelle?

The short answer is yes. If you afix a EG fairing to your road king you will have to remove your headlight narcle.

I,m awaiting shipment of a modified EG fairing that a guy used on his 03 Road King. He is sending detailed instructions , but said it will take me about 2 hours to install it.

Here are a couple of pictures of what he did to it for modifications. PM me and I will give you any details on my install when I begin in a couple of weeks

No you don't have to remove your nacelle or anything elseall the fairings are a direct bold on.
If you have no intension on removing the fairing check ebay and purchase an inner and outter HD fairing. It's much cheeper then the aftermarket versions.
I use the Dragonfly nice product.

Nice colours on your bike.

Hope this answers your questions if not do a search on the site.

I haven't seen anything like you are looking for, but there have been a few that have put on after market fairings, maybe they'll post up?

RE: Fairing Install on RK

Thanks CTmedic, I saw the post where you got your off Road King Riders Forum, and emailed Texas about it. I have checked the Hoppes and other detachables but they just don't seem to look as good as the OEM. Definitely pm or email me when you install it. My email is in my profile.

Thanks all for the input all of you guys, 'preciate it.

Greg64, I just got the bike painted last summer, used orange with metal flake in it, I'm no perfushnul pikur takur, looks awesome in the sun!

The photo below shows my '05 Road King on the left with a Quadzilla Fairing and and my '07 Ultra on the right. While they are not the exact same dimensions there is no visible difference between them. The same goes for Dead Center and Dragonfly.
