outer fairing removal
I have a 89 ultra classic, I even bought a book! The radio doesnt work so I bought a new one.I'm a cronic cheapskate so I'm going to do it my self. I'm trying to get the outer fairing off, I took the windshield off and the torx by the grips, I cant find the bottom screws that hold it together. HELP please!!!!!!

the lower ones are on the inboard side of the forks, you have to turn your handlebars on each side to see them,

yuppers... +1 on rocknrod. You have looked at them im sure but probably dismissed them as screws for the forks..

Be sure and cover your fender with a towel or something to prevent scratching and possible damage after the headlamp is disconnected...

Put the middle front screw back in before you take out the lower 2. That way the fairing will not fall off when you remove the inner two.
