The windshield and top of fairing vibrate forward and back over bumpy back country roads....like if I hit a section or row of small bumps.

Everything on the fairing and brackets are tight. I used loctite on the bracket-to-fairing bolts also.

Thanks mrmud4rx4. Been deciding for awhile an am considering this brand.

Maybe a thin rubber strip can fix that vibration. Just a thought.

The only other fairing I was considering was the dead center, but they were a bit more pricey...

I like the way woody's and dead center fit on the bike...they look stock...and they are both quality.

I think I will re-visit all my brackets/bolts/fitment to see if I missed anything or if something came loose. The vibration is not drastic...just noticeable.

(might be something else going on causing the vibration...that fairing is pretty stout)

I like my Woody's fairing on my 2011 FLHP. Easy on, and easy off gives me a lot of options and configurations. A word of warning though.......on my bike I tried to install the wings and the head of the crew on the left wing would hit my gas tank in full lock so I had to leave them off.

I don't get it....if you want that on your king....why not just buy one of those glide bikes?

Because I don't want a glide bike. I can put the fairing on for long trips and cold weather, use the RK windshield for short trips, and go naked when it's hot.
The RK is the most versatile bike HD makes. I can have multiple configurations on one platform.

These are the two I'm considering as well.
