I have a 2009 Glide that I am adding vented lowers to. So I am going through the process of raising my fairing in order to get lowers on the bike. I bought this bracket that looks alot like the old Hells Foundry adj. bracket. My intention is to raise the fairing approx 1-1/2" to line up with my tank lift. I was also going to adjust the angle a little to clean up the look from the side and maybe help with aero (maybe not). But anyways the idea of having lots of adjustment would help me get the fairing exactly where I want it to be. My only issue is it seems that the bracket gives me little choice but to push the fairing forward approx 2" also. I am curious if anyone here has experience with these, or the Hells Foundry version, if moving your fairing that much forward creates any issues. Did the hells foundry version do the same? Does the 2010 fairing mount move the fairing forward also compared to the 2009 and earlier? I am curious what the specs are for the HD 2010 fairing mount before I decide to start cutting on this bracket to make it match better with stock bracket. I could see moving it little bit forward, but a min of 2" seems like alot. It seems like I could cut the entire rear portion of this bracket off, drill new holes and still be able to move the faring forward 1"
I found some older threads of people on here (Direwolf was one) that had the Hells foundry version of this bracket and im curious if any of you had any input on how this plays out.
