BB,

Let me see what I can scrounge up.

Bike looks great Steve!

Denim,

It reduced buffeting significantly, but not completely.

Steve that is no doubt a great looking fairing but $3500.00 ?? I am thinking I could sell my 03 SERK and with not a lot more money then the $3500.00 ....probably a couple of grand more buy a late model SEEG and have it all .....

Scott,

You could.  I like mine and dropped the green on it.  And to this point, I am ridding the pi$$ out of it too.

when i had to make this decison on my 02, it was gonna be more then a few dollars more then adding the fairing/tour-pak/lowers to get up to a SEEG.

yes i could have done better with private sale and then buy vs. the chitty trade offered by a few dealers. but that was time i did not have to spend. and i'm sure gilligan will agree with this "i liked it to much to get rid of it" and pulling that stuff of and running without the windshield has been nice in this heat. ( try that with an SEEG )

[jachin72]

Well said Naitram and my sentiments exactly.  I couldn't think of parting with fat elvis.  I also wanted an Electraglide when I ran into my SERK.  From nearly the moment I bought the SERK, I laid out plans to get the pieces that would give me the 500+ miles per day comfort factor that I needed.  Those plans have come to fruition.  Very expensive plans, but what the heck, if not spent on the SERK, I would have blown it on a new Lexus or something like that.  And really who needs a Lexus when a CVO and a good dose of OCD does just as well  
But the best part of going Ultra SERK is just what you said.  I can strip 'er down to bare bones and turn just as many heads, tear around like a jacka$$, and dress it back up for the long trip a day later.  Fat Elvis has so many looks, it's almost like I have 3 or 4 bikes.

With all that said, the BB SEEG and the Cherry SEEG make my heart skip a beat every time I see one.  I hope I never have the money and close proximity to one of those at the same time.  

Note to self: Stay broke when around those SEEGs.  [smiley=huepfenlol2.gif] But the SERK stays no matter what.  [smiley=drink.gif]

Do any of you that have an aftermarket fairing (dragonfly, hoppe industries, dead center cycles) have problems with CD's skipping from hitting bumps in the road, the bike idling, normal driving, etc...  If so what model of fairing do you have and when does the skipping occur most.  Also another question I have is how is the sound of the stereo at highway speeds - is the sound of the music loud enough to hear at 70 -  and what pipes do you have?  I am on the verge of buying a fairing but I am undecided on which one and as you can see by my questions above I have some concerns  [smiley=confused5.gif].  Thank you very much for you input as I'm sure it will aid me in making a purchase decision.  

[naitram]

i have a dragonfly skips mostly at idle its not bad once i'm moving. its a sony unit and can play a sony format thats smaller then MP3 files using that format has helped me as well

yes its loud enough at 70, V&H slipons

would i buy it again......... no i wouldnt

[roadking07]

naitram - why would you not buy it again?

[naitram]

fit and finish could be better, and i think it might have been about the same price wise to convert to a real e-glide fairing and have the extra gauge holes filled in

Incidentially, I have seen a lot of guys talking about different windshields. I can make anyone any size/color windshield. My experience (career) was with Corian (counter top stuff) and cutting/polishing plastic is a sinch for me. It would be an easy "can-do" for any DF Fairing owners.... Just putting it out there. I would only charge what it costs me, in hard terms. I had to re-make mine after having it broken out on Cripple Creek...
