[@2samsinster2]

Just bought one off of JP cycles. Does it come with the mounts? Or do I have to buy separately? 2018 StreetBob

[@Theofreakindore]

Haha thanks for the shout dude. Yeah my rubber grommets were torn up too. My plastic is scratched too because of the vibrations from the bike rattling the fairing. I'm gonna do a vid about all my mods and I'll talk about all that.

[@ConnorFXDB]

for sure man! Ill be on the look out!! Safe riding!

[@moparbrent760]

Thanks for the shoutout. Dude, you're gonna love that fairing with the laminar lip

[@ConnorFXDB]

moparbrent760 for sure man! Thanks for the help! Dude I def dig the look of the bike with it on! Looks killer!!

[@sk8salot88]

hey connor! those circle marks on the inside of the fairing is call flash, it's when the plastic gets injected into the mold that makes your part (fairing) the circle mark you see is the ejector pin that pushes the part off of the molding face. there can be various reasons as to why those marks are there. ride safe and keeo up the vids

[@ConnorFXDB]

Cheers Kyle! Thank you so much for your comment and for the insight I was not aware of that. My apologies on the tardy reply. Thank you for watching!

[@FXDRonin]

Ive got the bung king mount kit for to suit the softail streetbob and i have no idea how the headlight extension block is ment to fit the stock headlight bucket bracket lol

[@ddjr702]

Thanks for seeing it through. You saved some folks on this...👍🏻

[@ConnorFXDB]

ya i wanted to give up and return it, but then I was pretty certain someone else was going to have the same trouble. In the end it looks great on the bike and if you know what you have to get to make it work it won't be as bad. But it was one obstacle over another that was so frustrating. And the fact that they don't have any general guidelines or instructions how it works other than "it does we know it does cuz one of our guys did it" and "its in the works" lol Thanks for watching! Much appreciated!!

[@samuelcabe3372]

Great video. Finished result looks great. Sorry you had so much trouble w the install. Thanks for making this video, def saved me a headache. I would've thought the same as you, and went with the Moons brackets. Cheers. Saved me some trouble for sure.

[@ConnorFXDB]

Samuel Cabe hey Samuel! Thanks for watching!! Very much appreciated! Thanks! I def love the look of it! It was just getting to the final result was def a bit of a journey lol Glad you found the video helpful! Did you end up going with a moons 1/4 fairing or HD one? I'm still curious how those moons brackets work lol But I do like the quick detach applicability with the quick release brackets from Harley Cheers!!!

[@samuelcabe3372]

ConnorFXDB I'm probably going to go with the HD detachable. Just because the main thing drawing me to the Moons was the cheaper price for what I though to be a similar quality product. But now after hearing all the cost you incurred, do you think you EVEN came out cheaper going with the Moons, or no?

[@haminlee]

Nice vid, man! Likin the quick releases! Wish I had that as an option on my rifle fairing. Keep em comin! Merry Christmas!

[@ConnorFXDB]

Hamin Lee thanks! ⚡✊🏻⚡ and thanks for watching! Much appreciated! Merry Christmas and Happy New year!

[@fijiianborn]

Bro are you lords of gas town!!?

[@ConnorFXDB]

Howdy Marvin! Thank you for watching and thank you for the comment! I am not. They are based out of Vancouver, BC up in Canada. Cheers and thanks again for watching!

[@ravinaummala7263]

Spacer headlight 1” right?

[@ConnorFXDB]

I believe so! Thank you for watching Ravin!

[@cosgs4484]

you are WAY more patient then me dude.

[@ConnorFXDB]

CO SGS lol this was a struggle and a half! The main thing that kept me in the game was so someone in the future knows what's coming and plans ahead so they don't have to go thru the same thing 😅 haha Thanks for watching!

[@Crazytown54-g1t]

Memphis shades gauntlet all the way! But I'm glad you were able to work it out. I was getting frustrated just listening to all the crap you had to deal with.

[@ConnorFXDB]

Razz InMiami dude for real! Haha I kinda just stuck with it for anyone that might end up going thru the same thing! Lol Thanks for watching!! Very much appreciated!

[@KyleSchwanz]

Man I'm glad I got the Harley fairing and the bung king brackets haha. All that figment crap would have pissed me off lol. Final product looks good though

[@ConnorFXDB]

Kyle Schwanz hahaha ya! It def was an adventure getting everything to work out. It might have been easier if there was other videos/general guidelines to help with the process lol Thanks for watching!

[@91rickybaker]

You still have the bike??

[@ConnorFXDB]

I do not. I traded it for my current bike now 2019 Lowrider FXLR

[@taschereaujp]

does the fairing need to flex alot when you put it on with the HD quick relase clamps? I'm in the process of fitting the same setup and it seems with the angle of he mounting brackets that it has to bend quite a bit to mount like you have to force it on I'm afraid its gonna break in half lol

[@ConnorFXDB]

it should not! I would attempt to get different brackets. which brackets do you have? the circle ones from moons or the bungking style brackets? It should be a plug and play type install -- you should only have to line up the holes insert the bolts and wham!

[@taschereaujp]

ConnorFXDB I don't have the bung kings, only the ones included with the fairing and the hd 49 mm quick release clamps

[@ConnorFXDB]

did you purchase from Moons or off amazon? do you have instagram? if so message me on there @ ConnorFXDB

[@codylamaar]

Do you have part numbers for the clamps you ended up going with? I just wanna make sure

[@ConnorFXDB]

hello klein! the part numbers are in the drop down menu below. This is the one for the QR clamps and the one for the locking one is listed below in the drop down 57192-05A

[@kraken8159]

Looks good though bro. Hey how do you like the laminar lip? Does it really work good? And does the velcro really stay? I have a gauntlet quarter fairing. And looking for less wind buffering. Hit me back?

[@ConnorFXDB]

Shawn Cox Evenin Shawn! I was a little hesitant on the Velcro but it did keep the laminar lip on fairly securely! I was really surprised. A couple months later I switched to the Road Warrior Fairing from MEMPHIS SHADES and been running that since. I’m at roughly 50,000 miles with the road warrior fairing (30 on my dyna and then swapped it over to my new Softail lowrider and I’m already at 20,000 on that)

[@kraken8159]

ConnorFXDB thanks my man. I think I’ll s buy one and drill holes and mount it with nylon hardware?? Damn California roads are shit! I would hate to hit a pot hole and have it fly off

[@ConnorFXDB]

Shawn Cox ya that is a solid choice. Make sure it’s really locked in and ain’t goin anywhere! Cheers and thanks for watching! Appreciate the comment

[@kraken8159]

ConnorFXDB yeah man keep up the vlogs👍

[@tcmcooly]

Hey man I looked up the part numbers and it seems like they don't carry them or something

[@ConnorFXDB]

tcmcooly hey what's up brutha Which part? The fairing or the quick release clamps?

[@VTwin_Nomad]

Why have you been changing to the road warrior later on?

[@ConnorFXDB]

Phil! My apologies for the tardy reply! Ended up going with the road warrior for more wind coverage and change up in look. Thanks for watching!

[@3paGame]

I think that shit looks fuckin sick with the laminar lip, and also good shit for making that work !

[@ConnorFXDB]

Clay FXDX thanks homie! ⚡🤘🏻⚡ it was def a journey trying to get everything to work.

[@gabymusk]

hey man , getting that fairing on it's a pain in the ass....i have a hd quarter fairing and i've tried everything fron bungking to hd and homemade clamps , same result --a gap from the headlight to the rubber groumet of the fairing... the last and best solution was a Rebuffini quarter fairing mount , that thing is straight on , comes with everything from headlight bracket to bolts ...

[@ConnorFXDB]

gabymusk never heard of em! Def gonna have to check em out! Ya there's a headlight mount/spacer from a couple companies but they're each like $40-60 and this gets the job done. May not be the prettiest but it does its job lol Thanks for watching!!

[@ryanhardin5166]

how does the added lip work in the wind at 75+MPH?

[@ConnorFXDB]

Texas Made it works awesome! Keeps majority of wind off you. You feel the wind moreso on the outside of your core like arms etc and the wind is directed upwards just above your helmet. I've cruised 90+ and def noticed a difference! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@g.flores8974]

Looks awesome and cool and and and, jealous of thr Bob looking darn good. Desperado Harley wants 500 plus 2 hours labor for the original one. I'll just wait for a while to get mine. peace bro.

[@ConnorFXDB]

thanks brutha! She def is coming along nicely! I always think I'm done but sure enough something else catches my eye lol. Next on the list Im thinking is (finally) chain conversion kit and switch to racingbros 14" shocks. Dang! Thats $$$$$ Why 500? Aren't they 399? I mean the harley 1/4 fairing plus the 49mm clamps I can see it cuz 140 for the clamps + 399 for the fairing but are they charging 500 for just the fairing kit?? Its pretty easy to install the shield you could def do it! Theres a video on here doing step by step of putting it together and then the clamps just install like listed in this video and boom!

[@g.flores8974]

ConnorFXDB I know it is but I've had it for 3 years and don't think I'm going to buy it I already put a lot of money in the bob. It has synthetic leather saddlebags looks big and kool. get them out too

[@ConnorFXDB]

Gabriel Flores I feel ya! $$$ money is just being thrown st my bike. You would think it was a stripper lolol

[@ianrivera2523]

Dude i've hit you up before on your channel. Just want to say thanks for all the quick feedback brother! I know you just switched to the memphis shades fairing, but man I'm loving this moonsmc with the lip. What prompted you to switch? Ride safe homie and keep doing you!

[@ConnorFXDB]

howdy Ian! my apologies for the tardy reply! Ended up wanting to try a different direction for looks and more wind buffeting. Both style fairings look great but ive been happy with the switch since doing so. Cheers and thank you for watching! Truly appreciate the continued support!

[@HoodStatus]

What height are the bars homie? any buffeting with the laminar? Got the same set up but with a deviant fab lip that I'm waiting on.

[@ConnorFXDB]

Hood Status what's up bud! The bars are lucky daves 13" lucky13 bars Damn I haven't heard of the deviant fab lip. Def checking that out! Thanks for watching!! Ride safe

[@TheYamaha109]

those bars, how tall are they? I have an fxd and I want Westcoast bars but can't decide on a hight.

[@ConnorFXDB]

matt sugrue what's up brutha! Thanks for watching and thanks for supporting the channel! West coast bars are dope too! I went with these cuz I liked the cant back towards the rider. These are 13" lucky 13 bars from lucky daves. They offer it 13-15"

[@TheYamaha109]

Awesome thanks man I appreciate it

[@tankman552]

Damn bro! i was really looking for a good quarter fairing, it sucks that we can't use the harley one!! I got so excited when i saw you got one ahhh!! Guess i gotta keep looking ahahah!!!

[@ConnorFXDB]

You can! Ive heard HD dealers tell me yes you can and other that you can't. The reason they say you can't is because the HD kit comes with 39mm clamps and i believe 2006+ dynas come with 49mm clamps. (correct me if Im wrong on the date) all you would need is to order the fairing from harley and order the 49mm QR clamps with it but you would be spending an extra $140 and have an extra set of 39mm clamps to stow away. All in all, the moonsmc with harley quick release clamps I was at $398 which is shy of harley $399 (before taxes) for theirs. As for the quality of the fairing from MOONSMC, I would say its 6/10 mainly because of the tiny details on the grommets being torn before I even put it on and the ease of scratches on the plastic glass portions. And of course the lack of instructions with their fork clamps lol. Thanks for watching! let me know if you have any questions

[@tankman552]

Oh see my harley dealer keeps telling me it won't fit! But you're absolutely right with 49mm QR clamps it'll work like a charm. Thanks brutha, I'm gonna buy the harley i think and shell out a few more bucks for the QR clamps. Another great and helpful vid. keep em coming!!! safe riding!

[@ConnorFXDB]

Isaac Tamulonis-Grant ya one of the dealers here told me on the phone that it wouldn't fit. I ended up going there to shop around for christmas presents and decided to ask in person and then they told me it would lolol so i looked on forums etc and that was why they said it wouldn't. Plus that its "made for sportsters" and on HD.com the fitment doesn't show dynas but I know several people rocking them on theirs with the 49mm clamps. Best of luck! And wise choice! The finish in the end is a little cleaner and Im sure the glass/plastic covers won't scratch as easy.

[@chrismedelez9312]

Dam big headache man but at least the end result is bad ass! I could use your help putting on their moonmaker

[@ConnorFXDB]

Chris Medelez ya exactly! The main issue was just the headache getting everything to work out and the clamps from Harley not coming with the needed bolts lolol Ya man. Just let me know! It shouldn't be too difficult. The main issue I hear Is just it being a tighter fit into the stock housing but we can give it a whirl

[@chrismedelez9312]

ConnorFXDB yea you would expect Harley to include all the hardware needed. Alright cool. Let me know when your free to help me out. I'm on vacation so I'm feee all week if you got the time.

[@ConnorFXDB]

Chris Medelez 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻will do

[@bknoxx]

Seemed like a nightmare but looks good 🤘

[@ConnorFXDB]

haha it was a bit frustrating! Mainly because of being excited to throw it on the bike ......and then having to troubleshoot. Only to have very little direction. But glad to have figured out a way with the help of some friends from instagram!

[@TheYamaha109]

Moonsmc guys told me I could use my top brow headlight set up with this fairing is that true?

[@ConnorFXDB]

Im not too sure! That would be more their expertise since they stated it. My headlight is bottom mounted so I dont have any issues and can see a brow mounted headlight working but again I cant speak for certain. My apologies for the tardy reply

[@jazzzyj7589]

The light doesnt fit right because the quarter fairing is designed to work with a top mount light not the bottom (even if they dont tell you that), so ya you gotta kinda make it work with what you got. Its gonna get dirty as fuck inside the light housing unless you make a seal up against your headlight with the rubber gasket on the headlight bucket on the rear of the fairing....the HD one is the same. The bolts that come with the HD QR clamps are button/domed head allens so the give you a little more clearance and you can come at them at a diff angle to tighten them. FYI, your fairing brackets are adjustable as well since they are 2 piece by the 4 little 1/4 nuts and may be able to get you a better fit on your light. ps...dont ghetto rig your shit like TD, you did it right with the QR clamps, same way I got mine, even tho HD rapes you on them!

[@ConnorFXDB]

JazzzMee 2 badass! Huge thanks for the feedback! And thanks for the support! Ya man the inside does get pretty dirty lol I went ghetto with the light mount with some spacers and I'll get the light block down the line.

[@roman_empire24_79]

so I have a gap between my fairing and headlight any tips on how to fix that

[@ConnorFXDB]

ROMAN EMPIRE yes, I have th same issue but since no one would really notice it I kinda just left it lol Bungking and a couple other company's (conelys USA) do also. You would need the headlight block to where it'll push it out to where it needs to be to not have that gap Thanks for watching!!

[@roman_empire24_79]

ConnorFXDB I spun mine is there another I can buy or something

[@roman_empire24_79]

ConnorFXDB my headlight was pointed too high adjusted it at night it's good now

[@ConnorFXDB]

awesome to hear! At first I had mine pointed a little too low, but after messing with it some I found the sweet spot! safe riding brutha!

[@TikiMedia]

Are these an exact HD Quarter Fairing Replica? I'm trying to figure out if these will fit the Plex Audio speakers..

[@ConnorFXDB]

Ariel Salenga dude awesome question! I'm not sure -- I've never thought of that! That would be something to ask moonsmc. I'm gonna ask to double check and for future knowledge. I'll keep you posted and let you know what I find out

[@TikiMedia]

ConnorFXDB awesome man, thank you!

[@ConnorFXDB]

Ariel Salenga for sure brutha!

[@ConnorFXDB]

Ariel Salenga messaged moons and they said the plex audio WILL fit.

[@TikiMedia]

Thanks for looking into that Connor! Good lookin out man!

[@xbeautifuldiscordx]

Wtf are we both doing up at 4am?? Lol

[@ConnorFXDB]

xbeautifuldiscordx haha not sleeping 😛 thanks for watching bud! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 happy ridin today!

[@austinsutton6543]

so what were the specs on the HD quick release clamps? i just bought a set from the dealer and ran into the same issue. Thanks!

[@ConnorFXDB]

like the bolt sizing? or what are you referring to? I ordered the quick release clamps (3) and one quick release locking clamp they didn't come with the bolts and had to go to home depot and pick up a set

[@austinsutton6543]

ConnorFXDB yea i meant the bolt size. I dont know how I didn't specify that. My bad.

[@ConnorFXDB]

Austin Sutton no worries just wanted to clarify. It's in the info drop down section of the video The bolts were m8-1.00 x 12

[@KnuckleUpFightClub]

Great job bro, I have to agree the quality is poor on the inside of the fairing. The HD fairing even though it cost more is the way to go for that style of fairing. Sometimes you get what you pay for .

[@ConnorFXDB]

KnuckleUpFightClub ya exactly. The fairing might've been cheaper but the HD 1/4 fairing even covers the finer details and finishes. Thanks for watching!

[@sdpikapp]

isn't the moonsMC the same one as the one on amazon for like $60?

[@ConnorFXDB]

thats what a couple people had stated lol but I think they stamp in-house. or "produce" i dk if they stamp em. But that was what my impression was from the markings on the inside of the fairing.

[@sdpikapp]

ConnorFXDB that's crazy considering the price difference. Can't knock the hustle I guess. I follow you on IG and that's one of my next mods for my low S

[@WheelieDan]

The one one eBay and Amazon breaks off where the screws are at. If u want a good quarter fairing go to Harley and pay good money for the real deal. No issues with factory..

[@SonicMegaUltra1234]

Thanks for the info! Ya saved me some frustration! Shiny side up and rubber side down!

[@ConnorFXDB]

Most definitely! Thank you for watching! My apologies for the tardy reply

[@Bones114]

Another awesome video bro! Thanks for all the details. Have a good day and get some fuckin sleep!

[@ConnorFXDB]

thanks homie! Ya man, details no one else included in their videos lolol my frustration level the day I was searching for a how-to video was thru the roof hahaha. For sure man! likewise! Safe ridin! #DynaNation

[@Bones114]

ConnorFXDB yea bro if I was the one trying to install it that thing woulda been in pieces. lol I have no patience but thankfully just about everyone I know has a fairing so I'll have a little help down here lol

[@ConnorFXDB]

hahaha would've been dope if I knew a couple people here rocking the 1/4 fairing. probably would've made it hell of a lot easier! You looking at getting a fairing? Which one?

[@Bones114]

ConnorFXDB yea dude probably the conleys t sport

[@ConnorFXDB]

justnmegs I was guessing that was the one you'd be rollin with. Def a dope ass fairing! 🙌🏻🙌🏻

[@joshualonas]

Amazon has the same fairing for 60$

[@ConnorFXDB]

yes! In hindsight it may have been the better option to go with. Thank you for watching!

[@guycheese]

Moons mc uses the krator fairing and marks it up man 79 bucks local to me and that’s Canadian dollars lol there shit

[@ConnorFXDB]

yes! It was most def an unpleasant experience regarding all of it. Thank you for your comment. My apologies for the tardy reply

[@Steve-vm1fi]

Seems like a huge pain in the ass but at least it looks great on your bike!

[@ConnorFXDB]

Steve lol no doubt! Headache and a half getting everything resolved and running! Hopefully the next person buying it comes across this video and helps them lol Thanks for watching bud!!

[@lVladSniper]

I was about to go to bed

[@ConnorFXDB]

lVlad NESS haha I know the feeling. Thanks for watching!! ⚡️✊🏻⚡️

[@tony2227]

Noooooooo Why you put the fairing??????? I wish you would put just a gazelle ...

[@ConnorFXDB]

Tony Vasconcelos gazelle? Lol not familiar Not a fan of the fairing? Thanks for watching!! 🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@bikeboy0012]

dude the thing that pisses me off is anything that is in style wise, the manufacturers fuck us consumers over. im looking at the bell moto3 and simpson m50, 350$ plus... are you fucking joking !! anyways good vid ima passmon moonsmc haha

[@ConnorFXDB]

bikeboy0012 lolol ya. The Simpson helmets are super in demand right now so they can charge whatever they want lol a good alternative and just waiting for the re release of em are the biltwell lane splitter helmets. Similar to Simpson but at $260 Supply and demand lol

[@Hct80]

x=by

[@ConnorFXDB]

Hct80 lol ?? Not sure I'm familiar with that formula

[@johnnyrotten3723]

Use only Harley mounts....there mounts are awful....secure.....yes.....user friendly....no

[@ConnorFXDB]

My apologies for the tardy reply! Apparently YT decided to flag this comment as potential spam and just now seeing it after clearing it. def a lesson learned! Ended up switching fairings about 2 months in after this video

[@johnnyrotten3723]

Product is complete garbage. Don't waste your money.

[@ConnorFXDB]

johnny rotten thank you for your input! Is this for overall for everything or specific to the fairing or the mounts? Thanks for watching!
