Not sure if I like it yet, still on the fence.

It might just end up on ebay...
that way I can get hard bags and maybe duals!

The RoadGlide is not my thing, but it looks pretty good on the Roadstar. Looks like you did a great job though! Looks slick! I'd like to see some more pictures.

Thanks!
It does take little to get accustomed to the ride; feels a bit weird. I'm thinking it might be too low, maybe needs to be angles upward?
I think ill put a few miles on it, then decide. Feels like a limo, everything is all stretched out forward.

I'll try and get better pics, my camera is crappy in the sun.

Pictres you have look good, I'd like to see some profile shots from the side. How does it handle being bolted to the crash bars? I assume most of the weight is off the forks that way?

The Roadglide fairing has never really been for me but I think it looks good on there,I can see why you are on the fence about it,does have a little angle down but I would probably gets some miles on before you toss it on ebay especially since I am sure you had some work in mounting it,do you have stereo and stuff in it also?

As was said before looks good. Get some miles before you decide. You might just love it.
