Got the batwing installed

[ssober]

Installed a wideopencustoms batwing on my 98 tourer.  I did not relocate the gauges but I did install a 2" headlight extension.  In used a kenwood marine head unit and polk audio db521 speakers (marine rated).  Used dyna mat and poly fill inside for better sound quality.  Sounds great.  I bought a taller windshield for long trips but the short tinted one looks better.

Looking good Scott.  I see you have also taken care of the better half with the Utilmate passenger seat and backrest.      Beacause of your avator I'm wondering if your planning on putting on a car tire when your Avon wears out?

Just getting a 97 tourer and when she's paid for I'm wanting one of those. Looks sweet !! I've seent hem with the headlight sitting back in and looked odd. Is that why you used the extension and which one? Thanks, Dave

I really like the batwing fairing, when i did mine i used an old harley one, yours looks like it fit really well. Very nice job.

Jim, My local shop would shoot me if I went to the dark side.  My wife always sends me to the track with cookies and everybody knows it.

I bought a extension off of ebay like $35 because it looked like it swallowed the headlight.
You will kill a $1000 to put one of these together with the radio but it is cheaper than a hoppy.

ghostrider, yours looks good too.  Does yours get a wiggle around 100?

   I am over 50 years old, running over a hundred would not be a good ideal, lol. No it does not wiggle over 100 mph. or at 120 mph.

My father is 58 and he and I went riding in the mountains last year.  When we pulled out of durango he said " we need to back it off and not run so hot today" 10 minutes later I looked down as I was passing 85 and had 3 more cars to pass and he was ahead of me.  50 ain't that old and shouldn't be an excuse, it just means you should know better.  If you had said 70 I might understand.  By the way, I had a great uncle that rode till he was 86 and never owned a trike.  He eventually had to downgrade to a Pacific Coast but he road until 86.
