I believe the original was called the "Tour Glide" but thats about all I know. Also, the Road Glide fairing changed (shape)at one time too. Interesting question, keep us posted!

My understaing is this is a "Vetter" fairing on Elvis's Bike but the twin beam headlight says factory right?
AND that does say "AMF" on the side, so that is pretty old.

That is a Vetter Liberator fairing. For those folks that wanted something uglier than a road glide
