I found this Freewheeler w/RG fairing, on a facebook group I belong to, John.

We bought a new Road Glide Trike conversion from Baton Rouge H-D in 2018. Interesting they said the hardest part was all of the connectors were reversed and had to be repinned and move the steering stabilizer from horizontal to in line with the bike. Handled well and was a pleasure to ride but fiancée said it was too big for her, we got it because she 5'2" and had trouble on a regular triglide reach and steering weight traded for a Freewheeler. She's happy with the FW.

I have done the conversion on a 2008 Street Glide in the past. It's really a simple job. The hardest part is spending the money on parts. I think I spent about $3,500 on all new parts (inner/outer painted fairings, mounts, bars and hardware) from a couple of online dealers. I took my time and had it done over the course of a weekend.

If my doctor didn't take out my defibrillator the wifes 19 Freewheeler that I had would have a RG fairing on it right now. I'm saving all the srock parts on my RGS for when I trade it in on a Tri Glide ill have them for my conversion.

Which would be cheaper, buying a Tri-Glide and putting a Road Glide fairing on it, or Buying a Road Glide and putting a trike kit on it?

I'm thinking the latter might be cheaper.

buying the tri glide and putting fairing on it would be way cheaper. I had both bikes, changed fairings, less than $100.00 spent and then sell the bike, way cheaper than buying new HD parts, that way you have everything you need.
