Oops, I must have missed the "wide glide" bit on the first read through! Awesome! Thanks, man!

No worries, man, and I definitely appreciate even that bit of advice!

You already answered one of my biggest questions: That the stock light will work. I don't mind inventing up some mounting brackets at all! (already planned to) I like the suggestion of repurposing the headlight mount, and I already have a good lock on how I'll do the headlight.

You don't remember if you ordered a narrow glide or a wide glide one, by chance, do you? I don't know if it actually matters or not, TBH.

I haven't had that bike for 3 years, and it's been 5 since I put that on. It really did look awesome though. I know I built custom brackets for it though out of 1¼ wide aluminum, two on the sides and one or two on the bottom. I don't remember what I bolted them too except that I cut up the bracket that holds the headlight and just mounted the stock headlight to the fairing. I really don't remember how though, I would need to see it again and I live in Virginia now. Send me some pics of the headlight and I still may be able to help you out. I think I also had to cut out notches for the turn signals. I am also pretty sure it is the wide glide version. Sorry, I didn't keep any of that info, I never thought in a million years I would need it.

Hopefully I helped a bit. Good luck!

Hey, man, so I just made an account in order to ask you about the old Honda Shadow you had. I noticed you had an Arlen Ness fairing on it and I've been wanting to put one on my bike. I don't see many of them around, so I wanted to ask you for any tips in doing it: Which version of the fairing (narrow, wide?) Any advice on fabbing up mounts, and did you change the stock headlight or it's mounting around any? Any help would be amazing, man.
