Im actually not a batwing fan, just don't like it, but thats a personal opinon. That being said, I do believe it has greater wind protection compared to the RP, i just love the look of the RP/RT fairing.

My one regret, is unfortunately going with RWD. Quality, customer service is nothing to complain about. However, it isn't an exact replica of the OEM version. The difference is the headlight bucket. Its actually a little more shallow. Big Bear has the closest version. Only reason I mention this is because i want to swap my headlight for a BD LP6 with drive/combo

thanks for the insight! I didn’t even notice, but it’s good to know. I’ll probably do the FXRP. What did you do for turn signals?

I used some smaller OEM look a like signals, they installed under the fairing, just beside the crash bar mount.Kuryakyn Bullet 1000 marker lights. Theyre ok, not exactly the look I wanted, but theyre low on the list of things to change for now.

You can kinda see em in my sig pic
