I look & look... love the paint match & all the hard work you put into making your bike your own, But I swear your fairing is off or its just the massive wind shield making it look to high up? Hmmm either way great work

What do you mean by "off"? I definitely want it to look right so if something isn't working with it I'll take any advice. I actually trimmed the windshield about 4 inches, hits me right about my nose from which I understand is where it should be. I'm afraid trimming it more would completely defeat the purpose having a windshield. I see the newer bikes with the lower windshields, and I've thought about it, but just haven't pulled the trigger. How would my ride be affected with a shorty windshield?

I think is looks pretty good like it is too.....Maybe you could add the Harley Winged logo in orange on the fairing and stripe the saddlebags in black....would be a unique bike for sure! Congrats on the fairing!

I think he is trying to tell you that the fairing is set too high....the part above the headlight should only be about 3/8"-1/2" about the headlight ring.

Got it, it's not too far off. What's difficult is setting it to much lower gets it pretty close to the bracket for the auxiliary lights. I'll lower it a bit and see if that closes the gap a bit. Thanks for the input.
