I keep an eye on it as someone warned me that could happen. I even bought some of that 3M film to put on the fender but never used it. I wipe down all the surfaces with a detailer almost every time I ride and haven't yet seen any evidence that the bag is touching the fender.

That happened to me on my old Fatboy, which was new at the time. Once that happens, you can't get rid of the marks, unless you paint it. Just be very careful with it.

Default Great Weather

Managed to order a set of pre load adjusters from Speed Merchant and install some Patriot Suspension springs to the front end.

Swapped cams from Andrews 462 to Redshift 468, swapped pro pipe for Vance and Hines staggered duals and installed Harley wedge A/C kit. Recent shoulder surgery is keeping me from riding but at least I’m now able to tinker when the Warden is at work!😜

I took a ride up to Cold Springs NY for the monthly bikes and breakfast.
A little cold on the ride up but well worth it. I took the Palisades to 9W. Very scenic riding up along the Hudson.
About 250 miles round trip.

This is a link to some pictures from the event: Some good looking bikes in Cold Springs NY

How you've found riding with this fairing & windshield? comfortable? do you mind some more photo from the front of the fairing?
thanks!

How do you like those S&S slip ons, Phil? Any issues? Did you leave the silencers in or did you remove them?

I'm still trying to find a pair of slip ons for my bike.
