Wall bracket for Sport Glide Fairing

    The benefits in terms of wind protection of the detachable fairing for the Softail Sport Glide seem to vary depending on who you speak to. That it is detachable is a great idea, except where do you store it without it getting knocked and damaged? Here's my solution:

    The tubes are made from 50mm PVC DWV pipe that you can buy at Bunnings. Same with the brackets. THe tubes are spaced 10"apart and the brackets are spaced vertically 5 1/2". I used inch measurements because HD did and it makes it easier to be precise. The extra holes are where I screwed up (Ma! fetch the Spackle!)

    Good idea Ross. Might make something like that for my clip on screen. I worry about just resting it on top of a table or the like.
