I'm thinking the latter might be cheaper.
you’re looking at 10,000 to 15,000 for a conversion. Depending of accessories

The accessories you choose will run the bill up quick.
I'm in the process of converting my 2011 Ultra Limited with a Roadsmith HDTR kit, drive out price is 19k with a few extras, rake kit, different wheel package, bigger sway bar, 3 gal auxiliary fuel tank, 2+2 narrow sweeper bars. Hoping to have it back this week end.

I've never ridden a bike with a Shark Fairing but love the look. I'd love to convert my Tri into a Shark but, with that said, I do like the way the Batwing Fairing reduces the wind and makes long riding easier. Would there be any benefits to a Shark Fairing over the Batwing? What's the real world difference?

Panama City HD builds these...they would not give me a parts list to do the conversion...what I did noticed was the steering stabilizer was mounted different...

Do a demo ride on a RG. I did in 2007 and never looked back On my 5th RG or RGU now .

Not sure if the part numbers transfer over for the newer bikes, but this is the parts list I used to convert my 2008 Street Glide.
