Looks great. I have a Reckless XE fairing ordered. Can't wait to mount & modify!

Very nice, I want my 2011 road king to look like that
I ride a streetglide, i'd say go no radio just because of weight. Streetglides ride nice but if you jump on a Roadglide you notice the lighter front end right away so if you can get a batwing and stay lightweight then your geting the best of both worlds. Mines 2013 so i have all the cool looking guages and it is pretty nice but simple and light is nice too. Run a FXRT Fairing frame mount and matching lowers. I've thought about doing up a RoadKing like that but i'm a one bike man.
Hey Rolley,
I like the twin cam Street Glides too. What color is yours?

It's factory color, red ember sunglow, it has an orange tint to it.
you did it right by moving it down and back👍 WAY proper looking. most I've seen looks like this big fairing sitting away and upright from the bike. love it bro! I gotta figure out to do it on my 99 fatboy.
Thank you.. I love the Fat boy
If you take the headlight trim and rotate it 180 degrees with the fairing on you won’t see the crease. It will be less noticeable at the top with the fairing on.
very nice, from the front and side looks exactly like a street glide,
Thank you
I like this!!! Very nice
Thank you
Sweet bike
Thank you
Very nice. Looking forward to getting my fairing For my road king
Hey Rusty,
Did you get a fairing installed yet?
If so, send a picture.
Thx
Bob
I did on my 2011
also can you post a video explaining how you lowered and tilted the fairing?
Hey James, I have plans to put together a video soon.
Thank you for your comments.
Bob
Thanks for sharing the info. I've emailed a specific question.
Hey Greg, I did not receive your email.
Hope you have a great Christmas.
I have the same bike but a 2018. Where did you get the kit to relocate the front turn signals from bar to forks? I cant find them anywhere.
Does original paint "black gelcoat" matches vivid black?
Legit question : why didnt you get a sg or rg instead of adding all the features they already have stock?
Don’t need a video, just a response on how you mounted the fairing back? Looks really good👍
Just saw your question. I Re drilled the mounting brackets on the fairing
Add some low profile mirrors from Harley, you may like the extended view.
I have thought about the mounting street glide mirrors to the fairing.
Which low profile mirrors are you thinking of?
Thx
Maybe a video on the bracket modification I just bought one and have the same issue.
Hey Doug, I have gotten a lot of requests to make a video showing how I lowered and tilted the fairing.
I hope to be getting back into it soon.

how quickly does the fairing detach? how heavy is it? I think i woukd like a fairing without all the speakers bc i don’t listen to music wjen i ride
I can remove the fairing in about 6-8 minutes and reinstall just as quick .
Thx
Have the same fairing. I took it apart and plan to simply position the fairing on the brackets and re-mark and drill the holes to permit a lower and more tilted back profile. Is that what you did?
Hey Sam, just saw your question. Yes, that is exactly what I did.
Have you repositioned yours yet?
So you didn’t modify the bracket but drilled new holes in the fairing itself?
How is this fairing for the wind?
Can you make a video on how to lower the fairing?
Hi Chris, I have been busy with a growing business that I have not had much time to give to videos.
However, I do have plans to make a video showing what I did to lower the fairing.
If you haven’t already, would you mind subscribing my channel.
I appreciate you contacting me.
Have a great Christmas!

Why haven’t u posted on the road king
Where did you buy the headlight extension ring?
Utah Harley
you have a part number for the reckless fairing ?
Hi James ,
I ordered my Reckless fairing from Accessories international in Miami Fl. There was not a part #. It was a called an HDRK 1996 through present Reckless Batwing fairing.
The outer is called a simulated vent and the inner is a single din radio shell with speaker cut outs.
It came with no speakers or radio. I chose it that way. I did order a windshield and stereo wiring harness .
The mounting brackets are included.
I paid around $514 including shipping.
Was very impressed with Accessories International .
I will be making a video and posting how I modified the brackets to sit lower and tilt back.
Thank you for subscribing .
@@spokesanddreams3333 I’ll be waiting on that video, I’m thinking of purchasing same fairing and also want mine to sit as close as oem batwing look as they come on Harleys. Hopefully we get that video soon thanks
What handle bars are you usin
Hi 302 Roadking,
I am using stock Roadglide Special bars.. found on eBay for about $80 bucks delivered.
I have about 15,000 miles on them and very happy with the comfort they give.
