Detachable fairing on RK question???
Has anyone on here bought one of the eBay Road King detachable fairings? I'm considering buying one, but wanted to ask about the quality before I buy. I'm not interested in paying $1500+ for a Quadzilla and really would rather pick out my own stereo equipment. I think I like the 6x9 speaker option over the quad 5" speakers. Please let me know your opinions on what you got. If you remember the seller, that would help me a lot too.
Thanks,
JJ

I put one on my Road King, I did a write of most of what I did to set it up.

Exactly the kind of info I was looking for! Thanks a ton! I wonder why your write-up didn't show up in my search???? Unfortunately, the guy that sold you yours doesn't have any for sale right now.
Anyone else have a good or bad experience?

Funny you should ask. My fairing came in today. The seller has good contact even after you have paid. I didn't see the fairing was coming from China until after I won the auction (bidding on multiple fairings). My fairing arrived exactly 1 week after I used pay pal. I am going to put it on and ride tomorrow and then I can give a better review. My only issue at first was I didn't like the way the 2 halves come together, but after looking at wideopencustom.com (my other option) they come together the same way. I won my auction for less than $300

My fairing did come in primer. Yes I am going to ride it unpainted and don't care how silly I look. LOL My apes are Wild1 12.5. I think (and hope) it will except other windshields. Like I said I ask this one seller a ton of questions and realized that I won a different auction. The 2 halves don't fit flush. Hold on and I will take a picture.

That's it, put a piece of crap plastic fairing from China on a $20,000 bike! That's what a good friend of mine told me when I bought one. Been there and done that. Save your money and learn from my mistake! In the end I bought a Dead Center Fairing with no regrets. Made in the USA by people who care after the sale....
