FXCW Rocker with Arlen Ness fairing?
#42
I just noticed your post count and I think that explains it. My bad for not realizing you evidently haven't been around the site. You will no doubt notice in short order that there is an abundance of good natured smack talk done during the Winter.
Anyways, it does look like there is cracking around the lower mount, or perhaps the hole splintered when drilled. Doesn't affect me one way or the other, I was merely pointing out that it appeared that way which may indicate that rubber mounting would prevent someone else from suffering the same fate.
Best of luck to you and your cracked fairing !

Please check out the little smiley face at the end of the sentence. That is meant to convey that the statement was meant in a humorous light. My first post says it looks like its cracked, which I was referencing. I guess a sense of humor isn't all that's lacking on your end I don't know why but I'm compelled to ask another question. You've went "cough cough" in two of your posts. Are you by chance getting your ***** checked while you're posting?

Am i lacking a sense of humor? hell yes i am. I posted pictures and an explanation of a project i underwent this last summer to help others. I didnt know going into the project if i would even work because i couldnt find anyone who had done it, but i gave it a shot anyways. I genuinly wanted to help other people by showing them how they can do it. It was expensive, frustrating, and time consuming but i think it was worth it and gives my rocker a unique look. But theres always people out there that want to critisize what you've accomplished. I did two tours in afghanistan too, perhaps you'd like to make a "light hearted little joke" at that as well. But hey as long as you put a smiley face after it, it' all good.

Now your just making trash up. No where anywhere is it written that a smiley face is an implication of levity. In fact if you were trying to imply that you were joking/ kidding/ not being serious/ ETC. a "winky face" would be the widely accepted emoticon of preference. ANY mouth breather with a cell phone and a text message plan could tell you that.

As far as my choice of emoticons, I have my doubts that the "winky" face is the only measure to show levity (hence LOL, LMAO, numerous smilies, etc..). You are taking this way to seriously my friend, which I find difficult to comprehend since you have likely seen things that most of us pray we never have to. I would think that simple, goofy Internet banter would be a relief from what you have been through, but I have not walked in your shoes so maybe not.
At any rate, thank you for your service, glad you are home safe, and hope the longer you stick around the more you'll see that the majority of us mean no harm, simply trying to liven up the hum drum days of Winter.
Ride safe, enjoy the holidays, and keep an eye out for Gargamel WINKIES!

I think you did help others with your post, which is a great thing. It's unfortunate that you don't have a sense of humor to go along with your ability to fabricate a nice piece of work. It seems you took offense to my mentioning it looked like it had a crack, as well as my light hearted comment on your face garb. Nowhere in my first post did I belittle your achievement at mounting your fairing.

What really erk'd me was the gay joke. Why? why would you make a negative insinuation at a complete stranger without provokation? I wear a bandana over my face because i primarily ride in Iowa where there are tons of bugs. The bandana is blue because my options at wal mart when i purchased the bandana was blue, red, black, or yellow. Considering blue is the color of my bike and coincidentally my favorite color it seemed the most logical choice.
I hope this elaboration shed some light on my seamingly humorless demeanor. I only wish you safe riding and that you think before you make negative insinuations at people you dont know no matter how harmless it may seem to you.

It doesn't. I get just as much wind in my face and chest as i did without it. For me it is purely cosmetic, however i was able to fabricate a little bag that sits inside it between the fairing and the handlebars so i have a place to store some little things like a cell phone or something as large as a 20 oz soda bottle. but if your looking for something to keep the wind off, keep on looking.
