I totally understand. The batwing fairing is always a good look.

I'd still assume that there isn't a high demand (for stated reason) and that may be why it's taking so long.

How do you get a discount for RM fairing.

I have the scootworks Phatrisers 1XV with voyager handlebars 1-1/4. Are they going to hit the radio on the fairing or cover it. I seen a pic with Phatriser 2 and they curve toward rider. Mine are straight up. Does anyone have that fairing with those risers.

I would think as long as you have wide base bars you would be fine judging by the photos on reckless website

I'm sure somebody will chime in that knows for sure, but I do know there are fitment issues with the Reckless fairing and risers. I believe there are only a few types of risers that will work with it. I have Chuckster's risers but not sure if they'll fit with the fairing. When that time comes around, I'll fix the risers to fit the fairing.

You would assume that Reckless would take installing risers into consideration when they designed the fairing. I doubt it would take much to make it work.

Risers and Reckless Fairing

from looking at the faring I would think you would have a problem there
To bad. Those are nice looking risers.
if you have any experience in that area. you could modify the inner faring to work. it is fiberglass so it would be very easy to do

I ordered my faring monday and totaly screwed up my discount
Alex sent me a coupon for the discount monday morning and when I tried to attach it to the order it wouldn't load I was in a big hurry so I went ahead and payed for it and sent Alex another post asking why It wouldn't load
Well come to find out I misspelled it. I figured I just blew $50
The next morning Alex sent me a post saying they would honor the discount and sent me $50 back
It was totally my mistake and reckless didn't owe me anything and for them to send me the $50 back was impressive they are great people to deal with

We've given Alex a lot of business, he knows better than to bite the hand that feeds him.

That is probably true
I like to believe he did it because it was the right thing to do though
I cant talk over the phone and I traded 17 posts with him over the last week
I thought he was very helpful. most of my post only took a couple of min to a few hours to be answered
