Default Saw a Street Glide today...

And, I really liked the way the fairing looked. It sure would look good on my RK...

I love the Road Glide, but I don't think I can afford oneright now .

Wondering if I can put a fairing like that on my RK. Really like the mirrors mounted to the fairing, really sleek look.

What you all think, get a fairing and put it on my bike?Will it fit with the big headlamp nacelle?

I had a 2001 Streetking. There are many aftermarket fairings you can put on your bike.
Once I put a detachable fairing on my Roadking, I never took it off.
Do a search on detachable fairings.

They have been putting batwing and RG farings on RK's for years.
Pretty easy to do. Not cheap to do right.
RK,SG.RG RGU,Ultra ect all the same basic bike with different parts hung on it.

Check out

Wide open fairings
Dead center fairings
