Default Ness Fairing Trial Fitting

Got my Ness fairing today. Here's the test fitting with green painter's tape holding it in place. Still accumulating some parts before I leap into mounting it.

Yeah, It looks nice, how does this fairing mount to the bike?

It came with two brackets that mount to the fork tubes on the bike and to the headlight hole on the fairing. You just gotta line everything up and drill the holes in the fairing. I haven't decided if I'm gonna use those brackets or my H-D quick release clamps.

If you can make the quick release clamps work, I'd use those

I like it. How would it look on a Nightster I wonder? Any ideas?

The quick release clamps will work. So the sportster version comes with the brackets. The street bob version does not. Looks great!

Me to, but it's not going to cost me. What are you doing?
