I kept cracking my windshields on the center and left side mount. I did notice that I had slightly more vibration on the left side of the fairing than the right. When I pulled the outer fairing to have it repainted, I saw one of the main brackets and both speaker brackets broken. It cost $80 for the 3 brackets. Not more than a month later, someone hit me from behind and I had fairing damage that could have easily accounted for the broken fairing brackets. Figures...[sm=smiley6.gif]

Take a look at this thread and the other mentioned in my last post.&nbsp\\;
https://www.hdforums.com/m_2367351/m...tm.htm#2469829

freyca has made a repair SS piece in this.

There are two other vertical brackets in the threads that break occassionally.

&nbsp\\; search:&nbsp\\;fairing bracket, etc

Hope this helps....

Lots of extra shakin of fairing or mirrors will tell you....I made mine with strap, and drilled&nbsp\\;2 holes and bolted them&nbsp\\;to the&nbsp\\;remaining brackets....10k later, no problem!
