You could have marked the bolt head with a paint pen or other transferable material. Then, pressed the fairing up against to Xfer the mark onto the back of the fairing. Drilled your pilot hole from the back, and then cut out with the hole saw. Maybe next time. Good vid. Now, let’s see some wheelies!
Love the channel blockhead and the LEDs video helped a lot with my Dyna wide glide, too cold to ride so just getting everything tricked out for the spring.
Maybe--depends on the bike, the sliders, and the crash. The ideal solution there is *folding* pedals; they'll (usually) tuck up out of the way instead of snapping. There are aftermarket kits for various bikes (usually adventure/dirt, but you might find some to fit your streetbike). Many of those kits are also adjustable fore-and-aft to match your foot size, which is great!
Kelvin White oh yeah don’t get me wrong I liked those videos too, but I only subscribed way back when he had the 883. Like I said we all have our preferences and sport bikes are not my thing anymore, used to be. I have an 883 and I enjoyed the crap out of the videos he would make, helped me a lot customize my own!
Mako Vette haha that would be an awesome idea! But the only problem I have with that, my town isn’t all that great to ride around. My videos would be open country roads, it’d be the same background in all the videos LOL
He appeals to both side of the community, its a good thing. I have 18' Harley bagger, and never thought of getting any smaller Harley or import bike, but after watching him I am interested in getting a Sportster of some sort to have a small bike to build/mod to have some fun with. Also I am becoming more interested in even think about getting a used sport bike..

Great video edits and explanation. Thank you.

The tab on back that holds fairto the inner piece. Did you have to cut that completely out or trim it?
Can you do a taste test review on the uncrustables with the blockhead crew
Awesome. Silly question, will the frame sliders do anything to save the break and transmission pedals in the case of a slide or a drop?
Not a silly question, I'm interested. Lost my right peg+rear brake in a fall. I now got sliders...

Time to fire up your GoPro and start your 883 Uber Alles channel, I'll sub to it! :)

Play-Doh the inside of the fairing and press. Tells you exactly.
What bench have you got?
Froghead 🐸 🤘 oh wait...
Those black spools will get tore up really quick. Otherwise cool vid.
You did well 🖒😎
And that uncustable when do we get a review on those lol
The rear ones DO NOT protect your bike. Mine came off and left a hole in my swingarm 👎🏿.
The rest are ok I guess.
