I've never seen a Woody's. I have seen DeadCenter and Quadzilla's. They look like good products, but I think the Dragonfly has nailed the custom look. Of all the fairings on the market, it's the first one I'd choose for my bike. The price is comparable to Deadcenter and the Kury as well. The quadzilla is a little less.

It is ordered and paid for.
In the end I chose CUSTOM WIDE OPEN. I think it's the best value for money.
Dragonfly costs twice as "wide open custom" (979 $ shipping Spain EUROPE included reproductr speakers and mp3 and cd 160w).
www.wideopencustom.com
Thanks for your information and advice.

I just wanted wind protection, so I got the Memphis shades fairing. Nice and clean, and no issues with messing with a radio.

When I will install it and view photos.
The reason I have not changed to a Street Glide or Ultra is because I have always longed for the bikes that I sold.
Road King Classic is 60's and Rock And Roll.

If I hadn't found my fairing when I did, I might have ordered a wide open. I looked at their website over and over when I was looking for a fairing. I found mine used, and saved a little, although by the time I repainted it, the cost savings started to shrink. I think you're going to love your bike with the fairing, can't wait to see some pics.

Congratulations.

My first choice would Woodys, but the problem is sending RAVEL. So I have to think about other options and other brands. Dragonfly is very expensive. A very high price.

Thank you.
If you are asking about the quality of a Tsukayu Fairing. I can answer in 1 word.
JUNK.
They squeak, rattle, vibrate, and the stereo and speakers is low quality. I had one and sold it after about a 100 miles and bought a Woody's to replace it.

Thank you.
I'm looking at HDFORUMS files and I find no comment about the brand of fairing CUSTOM WIDE OPEN
Does anyone know anything?
Does anyone have it installed on your bike?.

I hope some nticias owner.
It's the one I chose myself.
