Does anyone have any input/reviews for the Stealth Fairing? They're selling on Ebay for 350.00 and "look" to be a pretty good deal. Their listed for HD but will they fit the 1300S?

Anyone selling a used fairing out there?????

I bought one for Coop06 off ebay, well the inner of a HD Electraglide cuz I had an outer.
whole thing cost me $180.

you CAN mount an HD batwaing on a X (mine's a Streetglide)

Hunt for the cheap ones or (what I did was) make an offer on a buy now. Put ti in your watch list, when it ends and doesn't sell & they relist it, wait a few days and make an offer. good luck

Those fairings appear to be identical to my Invicta fairing...Invicta went out of business a few months back, and I suspect they either started back up under a new name, or somebody else bought their molds and put them back into production again...

Now for the nitty gritty...

They aren't a "direct fit" bolt on deal for a VTX...They are made to bolt right onto a Harley Roadking at the factory windshield mounting points....So what I did was fab up a steel bracket that uses existing mounting points on the VTX triple trees, and allows that (or any fairing designed to fit a Roadking) to be a bolt-on deal...I personally love my fairing and the time and $$ I spent making the mount was totally worth it...

That's not genuine harley

You need Streetglide, Electraglide, or I've been told the Road King fairing bolt right on...almost.

I like to look of my Streetglide
Yea, I did a quick google on it and it didn't match up. It's also missing a screw on the top.....pass

Listen, my wife gave me a budget of 1000.00 to spend and that's it.....I'm spending it as fast as possible before she changes her mind!!!!

Man, what an offer! Thanks, but I can't make it. 1. borrowed time on front tire. has to be changed immediately. Do you have the capability to change tires? 2. baseball practice with my boys from 1230 - 330 3. Cello practice with my boys from 400-530.

I'm off the next two weeks....I'll pm you and see what's a good time to hook-up.

Thanks again!!!!!!

Copy. I will be out of town on the 25 till the new year. If you like to meet this week at night then let me know. I sent you my cell last week. Call me if you like. I don't have anything to change the tire but there is a place near me that does them.

Order a 90 degree stem and order your dyna beads

Both of those are aftermarket fairings...The "Stealth" is just like mine, with the 6X9 model they have has the speakers mount in from behind like mine....The other one has the speakers mount from the outside...

There's positives and negatives with a factory HD fairing...Positive is that aftermarket support is HUGE, with all kinds of parts and accessories available for them..The negative is all the gauge holes that would need to be filled with something...Versus the one like mine that only has holes for speakers, head unit, and power supply cable...
