Default Fatbob wind shield

Which is the best and most stylish fairing / windshield for the Fatbob - Thinking of maybe wgtting one for when my bike arrives but I want the bike to still look as mean as it does without same but cannot seem to find one that takes the double headlights and looks the part

I have the HD quick-detach. I modded it to lay back more, but the bike looks much better without it.

You can ride with a good sheild or you can Pose with a stylish sheild. There are alot of fairing companies out there with detachable product. Any of your bike mazine will have there E mail address to shop from. Just pick the one you like to ride with.

I havent seen a fairing for the FDXF yet, either HD or aftermarket, wish I did know of one it would be nice. I just run the HD detachable. It works good and goes on n off in seconds but it dont do much for your hands.

IF I recall 'correctly' (Ol' Timerz dizeez), wasn't the whole idea of "bobbing" a scoot, to eliminate weight and extraneous 'junk' ???? JUS' AKSIN' .

NOW we want to buy one "bobbed", and THEN add all the stuff back on ????? Qwyt the "fickle" aminals, US humans iz. SOMEONE is LTAO, all the way to the bank.
