I have about $900.00 total in the fairing. Some spacers are required and the headlight needs to be moved forward about an inch. I designed all the parts necessary and can e-mail you drawings if you choose a Wide Open Custom fairing. The windshield that is on it in that photo is a 5" that is too short for me. I am about 6' tall and have since replaced it with an 8" shield. My fairing has a Jensen stereo with 4 Kenwood speakers. I also have Vance & Hines pipes and can hear the music even at 80-90 mph.
Thanks for all the great responses. That's just the kind of information I was looking for.

Gibby, I just might hit you up for that intel at some point. This was pretty much just a recon mission. I have a couple much more pressing issues before I start on the fun stuff (need new tires and probably a JOG and clutch spring/washers first).

Thanks all. If you have anything to add please feel free. No such thing as over information where I'm concerned. ;)

Where are you guys finding them?
I've bought from both these sources and both fit well and are good people to deal with.

I have a 9" that I purchased off of Ebay. I'm 6' 3" and it works great. I look over it. I also have the 6". It's for looks only.
