Fairing Bags?

Hi all from Chicago, new to the group.
Has anyone found three pouch fairing/windshield bags that would fit a 2011 Vaquero? Or is there an easy way to use an Indian or HD version?
To make it more difficult I'm trying to find one in "Indian tan"

Hello Chicago... Introduce yourself. What do you ride? How long have you been riding? Tell us a little about yourself.

Greetings and Welcome!
To answer your question; No, I have not seen one done. Curiosity has the better of me, if you do this, would like to see pictures... :)

Hey there, riding a 2011 Vaquero. Red, in the process of blacking out most of the chrome. Looking to make the ride more comfortable. Have taken any long trips yet. But trying to get out more and more.
Been riding for 26 yrs.
this is my fourth bike. Previously had a 97 Vulcan 750 that I bought new, and just sold last summer.
I've had the Vaquero for 3 years but fell in love w it when it first came out!

Just got a Corbin seat, Hering it installed on Monday, and will new to get the seat back covered to match, so I may ask the upholstery shop about possibly making one.

Someone told me that any Tri bag set would work and to just use heavy duty Velcro..... im not convinced

I had a single bag made by Franks Leather Products. He did a great job for a reasonable price.

If you want to play around with it, Make a quick windshield for 20 bucks and a little time. Home depot has 24 x 16 Or 18" Plexiglas. ( do Not cheap out and buy Acrylic=it will not cut). Make your self a shield and try different ways. When your done you can do a permanent job. And then post some pic for us. PM me if you want some tips.
I made one while I was waiting for my Clearview to come. It was great for a temp shield.

Were you over on VN 750.com any with a different user name? There are a few of us on here that are from there and made the move to bigger bikes. Good having you either way.
