Now all the Harley riders wave at me then stare at the motor as they pass; Goldwings don't wave now.

I like it when they wave about 5 car links ahead of you but when the get near they see its not a HD. Then they looked pissed that the waved.  You got pix?

That batwing fairing looks good Ramjet (I saw it a few weeks ago), where's the picture?  Looks good on a Valk.

I'm working on the same project. Pics and suggestions as to mounting points would be appreciated.

Nice looking bikes!  Chevy, I never thought of putting a Road Glide fairing on. No that is different. Mine is more like Ramjets, but with a short shield. Now how bout some picks of the insides. How did you handle the speedo/tach and how did you mount your fairings. What type of hardware.? Thanks. Tom

Do your bikes vibrate more and leak a bit of oil now?

Tom Bought fairing off Ebay from a wrecked HD. I molded in four bolts into the inside of the fairing for attachment, made my own brackets from aluminum and attached to the forks using the existing Memphis Shades fork mount brackets. Bought two Küryakyn clamps, mounted on handlebars and made two brackets to attach to bolts that hold windshield to fairing. No modifications to tach or speedo. Will post pictures when I have a chance.
