Love the overall look of the fixed fairing! Dominator hasn't been on my radar due to pricing though. I'm looking at the Villain2Hero version since I have their FXRP bags and am crazy satisfied with them. Just getting the primered version since I have to match the paint to rest of the custom paint on my bike. Good video, hope you find the windshield that will stop the buffeting for you.

@GiancarloFloyd Жыл бұрын
A lot of the times carbon fiber parts need to be finished around the corners with the light sanding and the variations in finish need to be buffed and clear coated and will make the whole thing better. I installed one of these on a customers bike and ended up keeping the bike for an extra week because I didn’t like the finish of the fairing I just fix the corners on it then buffed and polished it really came out perfect.

Yeah if I decide to keep it I’m gonna have to put some time in to it and make it nice then get some pinstripinh done to match the rest of the bike

I have a similar experience with Dominator from shipping to quality of the fairing, to so far being unable to mount it correctly. the bottom support bracket is way off from connecting to the lower portion of the fairing mount holes. Like you I'm pretty depressed on paying $$$ for what should have been a badass fairing.

@Ridin Dad IMZZ does paint matching, a few different companies that do the FXRT/P fairings do. But I also wouldn't do catbon fiber without paying someone to put a good 2k clear coat on it. Even a memphis shades fairing isn't color matched and should, in my opinion, be painted to match the bike. So, for me, part of looking into a fairing means painting no matter what.

@@RidinDad for the 3K you might as well consider trading the low rider in for a ST and start over …. I know that isn’t practical for us crew who have modded our bikes (131 and so on….). Quite frankly, as noted ( not so kindly by a previous commenter) the look is kinda done. I think the shark fairing from the baggers on the softail could be an interesting direction. ( I have to admit that 35 minutes ago before I saw the first unboxing video and then yours…. I was thinking I’d pull the trigger but that’s out the window now.)
