Just an update...everything's coming together nicely. Did my 9" risers and new speedo mount last weekend. Raised the headlight up with some old rear shock spacers last night. Fairing fits good....just gotta get the right bolts to get it mounted up...should be on there by the weekend.

Looks good. Just remember to measure, measure, and measure again before you drill the holes.

Some fairing/visors/headlight covers (whatever you want to call them) look great on some sporties.
Not so hot on others, can't explain why that is.
Ever since I saw Michael Douglas on the black sportster in "Black Rain" I have always liked thm.

Coincidentally, that's what mine is, a Tracy "Black Rain" fairing...

I like the one that came on my bike from the factory. It seems to fit the bike really well.

Yeah, you're right, looks like it was made for that bike!
Nice to see a well maintained classic.
