Default Road King Front Fairings

I'm considering picking up an aftermarket front fairing for the Road King, and I was wondering if anybody had any recomendations? I'm leaning towards either the Hoppe Quadzilla fairing or the Dragonfly Cycles fairing. If anybody's had experience with either of these, let me know what you think.

I personally have only seen pictures of RK's with front fairings on them. It did not strike me as something I would have done to a RK. I really like the classic lines of the RK and think that the front windshield is the look for that bike. Memphis shades makes some great windshields if you want to add some color to the front. The Electric Glide series stands alone with the Batwing fairings and the Roadglide a distant second, to me, for front fairing bikes. Wally's cycle world has a lot of catalogs to surf through and might be able to show you what you need.

Good Luck.

Well, I'm looking for something that'll increase touring comfort, that I can still take off when I get home and have a nice round town cruiser. Road King looks great as it is, but I imagine it provides considerably less protection than an Electra Glide. That's why I was looking at the aftermarket fairings.

This outfit has fairing that mounts on the existing RK windshield hardware. You can customize and add accessories.
