Has anyone used this repro T-Sport Fairing?
#43
Anyone deal with a conely fairing lately? I had one last year got sick of the windshield and finish issues so I sold it. But now I see his t sport available on J&P cycle so I called. John told me of all his improvements and said he is now doing the fiber glass work himself. His pictures online appear to be better quality. So just wondering if anyone else can verify this new improved fairing.

I have a conely t-sport set up. Had the short windshield but it was pointless. Put on the cee baileys 16". It blocks wind well enough but the conely brackets are much too low so the entire thing shudders above 50 mph. It desperately needs higher brackets like the rifle roadster. If I was doing it all over I'd go with the rifle roadster or buy a used HD fairing and get the BK brackets to mount it.

Alright so I got the one-off Tsport repro off ebay for $125. Figured I'd paint it, buy a Conely's tall windshield, and if I didn't like it, I'd just sell it for pretty much the cash I put into it.
Looks like the fairing is a Conely's, or at least is made my the same folks that make his. It's fiberglass, and pretty sturdy. Bung King hooked me up with a mounting kit for it.
My only issue with this fairing is that it mounts high, and close to the bars- which all Conely's T Sport repros seem to do. I think it looks far better in the OEM position, which is lower and pretty much covers the bottom part of the tree completely.
The reason why its hard to get it lower is because of the headlight mount. I am going to see if Bung King can make me one that will lower the headlight about an inch. I have already used some longer hardware to attach to the clamps, so that pushes the top half out a bit so it's not so close to the bars.
Gonna keep playing with it, but it's not too bad for now
