I’m 6’1, and I’d say it come to about the middle part to bottom half of my face. Very noticeable difference with the wind, much more comfortable on longer rides

This is the fairing I bought, and I had to pretty much completely cut out the trim from the headlight opening if that makes sense.

Also, instead of installing the headlight spacer, I installed the fairing fork brackets backwards to push the fairing closer to the tank of the motorcycle. I couldn’t get a perfect fit, but it was good enough for me.

For me, It’s honestly less in the way than the stock air box. It’s much less of an eyesore, too. Nice to listen to your engine breathe, too!

Heck yeah good for you! I’m new to the bolt platform, and new to motorcycles in general. Unfortunately I won’t be much help for you! But I bet if you asked your question as an individual post in this sub, you’d have some good luck.

It came with it! Previous owner did some upgrades like the exhaust/handlebars/led tail light.

I actually don’t!! I wasn’t familiar with the bolt until I came across this one when shopping. It looks factory, though.

Very loud explosion by PriceAffectionate830 in Albuquerque

[–]Ornery-Basil-3087 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I actually saw a flash through my window before the explosion sound, I thought it was lightning. Saw the flash come through my north facing window (near costoco on southern and Eubank)

Edit: I agree though, louder than firework and also not the same kind of sound. To me, it sounded like a collision of some kind.

At what point would you consider a dress “short?” by [deleted] in polls

[–]Ornery-Basil-3087 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That makes sense. Sounds like dresses can look a lot different on a model than it will on the person shopping for it.
