Default Gladiator Winshield

So I know this is a fairing thread but I wanted to share how I mounted my little Gladiator windshield to my T-bars. I used some Memphis shade 11/4 inch clamps that I got on JP Cycles and went to Lowe's and got some stainless steel hardware. It is more solid than it was when mounted to the clamps of my drag bars and still does a killer job.

A much cheaper alternative for a fairing and is adjustable as well. Let me know what you think.

PS Don't mind the dirt and bugs, these pics were taken once I got back from a 2K road trip to Sturgis.

'06 Street Bob with cheap Ebay bikini fairing:



The mounting hardware that comes with it is for top triple mounted headlights. Mine mounts to the lower triple so I had to modify it. Plus, because I am using drags with 2' risers, I wanted the fairing lower on the bike than it was set up to be.

What I did was open up the mounting holes on the included bracket so that it could be mounted to the underside of the upper triple via the riser bolts. Done this way the headlight bucket becomes part of the mounting system. With the fairing mounted to the bracket, it sticks way out at the bottom. By placing the headlight through the opening from the front and attaching it to the mounting block, it pulls the fairing back and keeps it from vibrating. I had to increase the opening with a Dremel so that the headlight sat where I wanted, and didn't stick to far out.

With the first try the fairing looked okay, but sat higher than I wanted. So I got a mounting block that moved the headlight out and down. Now the fairing sits 2 inches lower than at first and is right where I want it. In the one picture you can see where I had to notch the fairing to work with the original headlight mounting block. I will just order another fairing when it's time for paint. Also, with this mounting setup the fairing sits right against the top triples, so I took some vacuum hoses, split them in half and put them on the edge of the fairing to protect it. Also, this "tightness" prevents the whole thing from vibrating separate from the forks.

Default Hd 1/4

Looking to see if anyone is selling an HD 1/4 fairing for an 02 Dyna with 39 MM... or if they have the part number for the HD dealer that had them for 250

Thanks EJ122773, looks better than the pics on the MS website.

Wonder if it's just a little different for the Wide Glide.

Thank you...Not sure about the website? I added the MS wind deflectors this week. It all works good.
