Default Road Glide Fairing Pods

The group I ride with had a large benefit fajita cookoff this past Saturday. There was a guy there from another club that had done some fiberglass work to his Fairing pod lids and installed some Focals. Cool thing was the little storage space was still all useable. I thought I'd share and see if y'all have seen anything like this or know if a place that can do this or sells something similar. I inquired if he'd be interested in doing another set, but he said he was done with his.

Looks great! Probably sounds even better. Only bad thing I can think of is speakers have to water proof if plan to do any real riding in this part of the country.....

That is exactly what I wanted to do but was told the 4" would be a waste of my time. I'd love to hear what he thinks of the speakers and how they sound.

I had my local shop fab up these to mount my B3 horns:


There is a guy that makes rings for the ST25/35/44, B3's and 8" made of aluminum that can use a grill that you can use grill cloth that's been treated to make semi water proof. It won't take a direct blast from the hose but it seems to be ok while riding in the rain. He posts on fb in the various bagger groups.

I would like to do something like the pics I posted or like Bunker posted. I just don't have the time or skills to attempt the work.

What's going on Blue Tick? Hope all is well brother. I should be up and riding again in the next week or two. Probably start with 100-150 mile ride just be sure I can handle the miles.

It's Joel Harrison from southern Illinois. If you're on facebook get added to garage built Baggers. You'll find him. He does a lot of CNC work for some custom shops and he'll even do one of designs
