Default Freight train nacelle on a Freewheeler

Has anybody seen or worked on a 2018 Freewheeler with a freight train nacelle? What would it entail? I’d like to Road King out my front a bit and really like the big light housing.

I like what I see but I’m hoping to find out if anybody’s done it yet.

the back ordered parts for doing the Freight Train Nacelle for my wife’s Freewheeler just arrived. That and a set of pre ‘14 passing lamps will be installed after vacation. I should have pic’s. In a couple weeks.

Sounds fantastic. I’m looking forward to seeing pictures and hearing how the install went.

I am sad to report unless your willing to modify the triple tree on your Freewheeler the Freight Train Nacelle is not going to work/fit. It contacts the bottom triple tree where the steering stabilizer mounts as well as the front top the bottom triple tree where the original headlight boss is located. I also believe the steering lock is an issue as well.

thankfully the parts dept I deal w is not charging me any restocking on it...
