The also have a bracket kit to mount the FLT bags to your fatboy... (or not... I dont know if the kits been revamped for the wide-tire fatboy)
Yup, they sure do...

Problem is they want an arm and leg for it. Price I saw was like $250 US for the bracket kit. Way too much when the dealer quoted me $190 for everything from the triple trees out to the windshield plexi...

What I did was just buy a semi-scratched windshield off Ebay for $67. I'll take the mounting brackets off and copy them on some sheetmetal. Will cut that out and cut/weld the existing mounting bracket tops to these attachment bottoms, then have them chromed. End result, I have a detachable fairing and windshield both. Only real investment is time and elbow grease, and THAT is the sort of time I don't mind investing in.
