Look to be the crash bar been cut at the top and a brace was modified to bolt to the bar and faring. That way the forks and brake lines would be out of the way, I think the strength is gone from the bars. Looks cool but I love my lowers too much to loose them.

What about notching the fairing piece just a little bit to fit with the stock crash bar? It looks like it would be a fairly small little notch that would have to be cut out there just below the bend. Maybe half the circumference of the bar notched in.

Default Road Glide Fairing Spoiler

Hey everyone, I currently have a 2015 Road glide special and I would like to install the Road glide fairing spoiler kit. Can someone tell me if its possible or is that spoiler only for the 2017 and up?

I see here it's at least possible.

Can someone that owns a fairing spoiler post a picture or explain how exactly its mounted, and why so many people say using the stock bar is impossible?
I haven't seen one in person so any more detailed pictures would be useful.
Thank you!
Go to roadglide.org and look at my profile albums same username, also a write up should be in the forum if you search it

I use airlite soft lowers all the time. you can also take the outer bars completely off for the trimmed look and the fairing stays supported. GLIDE-ON!!!

Looks good but I still would need a crash bar. I don't think my insurance would pay crap if anything happen.
