Does anybody have an aftermarket windscreen or fairing that works on the XB9S? Any help out there?

Thanks
Michael

Great idea but what do you do about the headlights, Gonen60? Do you know how you're gonna mount everything? Inquiring minds want to know.

I have to switch over to the Rs headlights. Also changing top triple tree and handle bars..My gauges will switch over, along with my ignition key...I had to purchase fairing, magnesium braket,headlights,toptree, bars, clear windscreen,short stem mirrors,one small wiring harness for headlights, few nuts and bolts. I think changing the top tree will be the toughest part, because I have to jack bike up to remove existing top tree. the bracket and fairing should bolt right up...cool thing I was able to order the 04 fairing, which comes in black like my bike..No painting !!! Yea.

Thanks for the info...I've been kicking around which bike to purchase, the XB9S-L is more my style (height) but I do like the fairing so once again the BB comes through a great solution. Good luck with it. Let me know how the installation goes, pictures etcetra. Thanks again!

I put 200 miles on an XB9S today. After I was done riding today I don't think I am going to get anything for the front. Believe it or not, but I get a lot more wind from my Road King without the windshield.
