Not sure if the Street Glide one will fit, might want to try the ones for the Ultra or the Limited but I don't know if they'll fit either.
Sorry I couldn't be more helpful! LOL!

All the 1996-2013 Fairings for the StreetGlide up to the Ultra are the same shaped Fairings.

The Reckless fairing is a copy of the HD fairing so the Bra should fit. I would call Reckless & ask them just to be sure.

Before you test fit the fairing bra - throw it in the trash and walk away. Dirt/grime/dust/etc will get under it and ruin your paint.

Riding through a sand storm will do the same thing for you and that is free.

I've had a fairing bra on my bike for about 5 years and my paint is in perfect condition,you have to make sure the cover is clean and put it on so its tight and nothing can get under it.

Why cover up good paint with an ugly piece of vinyl?

others use 3M clear vinyl with great results - like this - many other suppliers as well

I run the vinyl lid covers on my saddlebag lids as my wife or I inadvertantly kick them on a rare occasion. I have been using them for the past couple years, and rarely take them off, but not noticed any damage to the paint when I do, so I don't buy the damaging the paint thing by using them.

It's your ride, do what ya want.
