It looks good, but it does not look the same as the other popular aftermarket fairings. Maybe the angle of the picture, maybe the windshield itself. Most of us with afterbats don't have a wind problem even with short windshields. Hope it works out for you, enjoy.

Default How about some pics and ride review with batwing?

Anybody got some close ups front/inside to view quality of the Memphis Batwing. I'm interested in it, but would like to see more. Any updates on riding with it? How well does it stand up to vibration,speed, wind deflection at freeway speed?

Sounds like the taller shield will help some, other than that the onlyother way to get it off your face is to try and get it a little more upright. The reversed trees on the RKing will handle it being a few degrees forward of the fork angle

having had the MS Batwing for a couple of years now, it has travelled many thousands of miles and has treated me well. please look in my photo album for the mod that I did on the brackets to get it to "sit up" a bit. All in all I think that for the money you cant go wrong. And for the radio...Ipod\Zune and earpods do the trick quite nicely.

I just put the Kuryakyn Air Master on and dig it. I am a little bummed at some vibration at idle...
