- October 12, 2013, 20:57:01 PMI have a fairing and radio on my 1500 drifter which I will be removing soon. I am going to replace it with a windshield . It is mounted to the windscreen brackets.
I will sell the fairing and brackets and radio and speakers for 300 plus shipping.

- January 25, 2013, 00:45:26 AMDid they ever make the brackets for this for the drifter? I would be very interested. If it will fit the 1500. does that mean it will fit the 800 also?

- February 20, 2012, 07:19:47 AMI bought a Hoppe fairing on craigslist its new never installed the only thing is I had to make the brackets which he lost in a move but they weren't that hard...I couldn't pass this up I checked on hoppes website and they wanted $1100 bucks for just the fairing no stereo and I got it from this guy for $225 (no stereo) no kidding and another $80 bucks in shipping from San Diego to Toledo Ohio ... I'm going to paint it today at the shop then a clutch rebuild at the end of the week.

- December 30, 2011, 22:36:19 PMI found a fairing at Reckless Cycles in Tenn. ..what I need to find out is if a 1500 Nomad has the same front end as a 1500 Drifter I believe they do..they sell the fairing for $350 no stereo and unpainted but it does come with an 8" windshield I think I'm going to go that route cause its easier than trying to adapt a HD fairing.. they do sell finished fairings also . www.recklessmotorcycles.com.

- December 26, 2011, 22:13:23 PMDoes the ultra attach to the frame or forks. several folks have put harley fairings on the drifter. And there are a few places that make fairings for the classic or nomad which may be adaptable.
This may be of interest... but these are fork mounted.http://www.vulcandrifterriders.com/chuckfairing.html

- December 25, 2011, 13:05:12 PMI found a HD Ultra inner and outer fairing cheap.. I've been thinking about installing a fairing because I need a stereo and need the sound I don't want to mess around with an Ipod since I'm not handy with that stuff..my question is has anyone ever put one on a 1500 Drifter and if so was it a project ..I appreciate any feedback. Thanks Rick
