Yep, that is a Deadcenter fairing. I've had it since March. I love it and have only taken it off once. I actually wanted the extra space above the dash because I plan to put a wide screen GPS/entertainment system in that area.

Those fairings look great, and the hard tourpack. I have thought about both but would have them off alot of the time but it sounds easy and quick to convert. I like the emblem on there also, it really dresses it up.

Talking Fairing

Monstead,

Fairing look's great. I was also planning originally to get a Dead Center Fairing, but my budget got in the way. I ordered Woody's Fairing and it is supposed to be here tomorrow. I can't wait!!

Dead Center is tough to beat. Your looks great with that paint scheme too. Love the stick chick riding with her hair in the breeze!

Very nicely done Monstead. I can see you're going to love that Dead Center as much as I do mine. After all those years of riding without music, I just didn't realize how much I would enjoy the tunes. Great job on the paint too. It really looks good. Thanks for the great photos. Ride safe out there now, sometimes those tunes can put you in another world. At least they do me. Enjoy....

You will not be dissipointed with your Woody's fairing, Some people here have said why they bought a Dead Center, planning on using the extra space above the radio, but I never liked the way they looked, I love my Woody's it is well built, not real heavy, looks great, great price, the speakers that came with the fairing are great, I have not gone fast enough yet to not be able top hear the tunes, and Woody's customer support is A-1.

I ordered my Woody's last week and it's supposed to ship this week, then off to the painter. already ordered the radio Glen recommended...now it's just hurry up and wait. I was looking at all the different fairings, Dead Center, Tsyurakin (or something like that which I almost got until I found out they're made outside the US, i'd have to pay import fees or something like that), dragon fly, etc. I went with Woody's for the price/value, talked to him several times on the phone, he's sent me email with pics, instructions, etc....

Fairing looks great.

I Also added a fairing to my Road King, I don't think I'll ever take it off except for maybe cleaning.

My Harley saleman saw the bike with everything I had on it and stated I sould have sold you and Electro-Glide.

My answer was why would I want a hard top when I can have a convertable. It can be any bike I want it to be at any give time.

Harley's are like Hot Rods, There's always something else that you just got to have for it.

The volt meter have been replaced with a 2" Harley Davidson Tach. Whats Next?
