Phil P., the difference between the FatBoy and the other softail models is the fact that it has a FL front end. My problem is I wanted my cake and be able to eat it too. It is an '07 with a SE II 103" kit so I am afraid I will take a bath trading it in. I wanted the lowered fat tire look and still have the fat FL front end. Hence why I went with the FatBoy. It wasn't until I took a longer trip then normal that I realized how much of a difference a windshield makes when you don't have one.

Looks like I will take a closer look at the Dragonfly or some of the others. I may ask my local dealer out of curiosity what it would cost to change out the uppers on my fork tubes and get a factory fairing just for a comparison in pricing. But it sounds like from you all that my initial idea might be a little far fetched.

Knightenforcer, thanks for the link. That is the best aftermarket one I have seen yet. All the others I have looked at are just a shell.
