Here's one. With a little trimming it fits just fine.

There is another thread out there that has some pics of a guy that used a stock EG fairing and the stock RK windshield to make a detachable fairing.

Can it be done, yes. easily. no remember all of your wiring is in the headlight narcel, on the glides it is in the faring. you will have to fabricate the mount. The gages will not be functional unless you buy or fabricate a wiring harness. Do a search on the site you will find that most of us thought about doing that before we decided it was easier and cheaper to buy a detachable

rk fairing

no one asked but if you wanted a fairing on a bike why did ya get the RKC ? should swap for an flhtc or flhtcu ,,,that being said yes the hoppe is a decent one although its quick disconnect ability is questionable but for about 60 bucks you can get some awesome black quality leather and with patience completely cover the entire fairing so it matches the blk leather look of the bike

Detachable fairing

I looked at the Memphis Shades fairing, but it was more a shell than anything. There is one made by invictamotorsports.com that comes in 3 versions. They are either with cut-outs for 6x9 speaker, two (2) 5" speakers, or a blank inner. I got the blank no hole inner set-up. That way I can put what I want in there.

It comes with Fairing, windhshield, brackets and hardware. They list for $600 on their website, but I got it for $375 on EBAY.

Much nicer than Memphis Shades.....

I did hear that the Wide Open is a nice fairing though. Just like to make sure I am not missing anything.

changing out the flyscreen/riser cover to the original road king type is easy and fairly inexpensive to do. so i wouldn't let that limit my options as far as fairing type goes.

Here is the fairing...

Much cleaner look with the inner fairing. Doesn't look "hollow".

Also gives you ability to modify inner the way you want.

Comes with detachable brackets, hardware and windshield.
