Default Memphis Shades Batwing on a Road King, anyone??

Yesterday I saw a HD Deluxe with a Memphis Shades Batwing and it made the bike look good. Since I don't think I will ever be able to upgrade my ride to an Ultra, I might have to settle for some changes to my bike. So,I would like to hear reviews of anyone that has put this product on a Road King before I invest in one.

Bought mine from ebay, my bike was black so when it came out of the box, it was a perfect match, the assembly was easy and so was the fit. I really enjoyed it. My indy showed it to some of his friends and he said they all bought it too. You won't be disapointed.

Does the Memphis Shades fairing mount with the quick release windshield mounts?

you have to make sure you get the right kit and hardware, but yes it does.

I found it to a little flimsy as far as fairings go. I eventually switched over to a dragon fly fairing.

I did end up making some custom windshields for the Memphis shades fairing.

If you are interested in one give me a ring and Ill talk you through it.
