Great video Steve ! It only took 7 years for someone to post this video. Great job buddy.
Thank you....I searched high and dry and thought this would be a good video for everyone with a road glide. Thanks for checking it out.
BEST VIDEO of a STEP BY STEP to take apart that front fairing to get to my speakers to fix a loose connection... this was AWESOME BROTHER!!! and I subscribed... SIK BAGGERS FOR THE WIN!
This video came in clutch.... I'm getting ready to reassemble my inner fairing and I have the old one still together. This video has given me all the info I needed for reassembly.
Awesome Josh...im glad it helped man!
Great vid as usual Steve! Watching you tackle these upgrades is giving me a ton of confidence to do things myself instead of paying someone else to do them. Read the comments so I’ll wait for the bars video to see how it looks. Thanks again.
Hey Kevin...thank you man...pretty easy to remove...yeah the bars video will be coming up very soon. We have a air ride switch and then probably the bars followed by the reservoir caps,mirrors, grips and hand levers video.
Great video as always! I am tearing into mine next week so I will watch this about 35 times over the next few days...
well it went way smoother in this video then it did live lol
This channel is the most informative I’ve ever found about my Harley. Thank you so much Steven.
Hey thank you for checking us out and the kind words..really appreciate it!
Absolutely brilliant. These are the best kinds of videos for me. I'll watch you work all day long. Most excellent.
Another great video from Steve. People talk about removing the inner fairing but this is the first in depth video I've seen on the disassembly.
Thank you Tony..very time consuming shooting the video but not too bad actually doing the removal. I was surprised to not see any on youtube. Thanks for checking it out man
Thanks for all these vids Steve...you and another youtuber helped me through doing some of my own replacement/installs...
Thats awesome man,..,.thats why i do it....im glad it helped you. Every have any questions on anything just ask ...be safe!
Wow! I have had the inner and outer fairings off my '08 multiple times. I found it interesting how modular the new ones are. Not to mention seemingly stronger. Fairly complex assembly but, as you indicate, also fairly straightforward. Thanks for the video.
Yes sir the newer ones are much more solid. Ill be removing the Fairing support brackets in a future video to do the 2 inch fairing drop. The way it is mounted now it really doesnt need them.
Great Video!!
Road Glide Pride!
Definitely helped me out so I could replace my inner fairing mounting bracket on my 2015!
Thanks for your time making these videos!
Thank you Paul and im glad the video helped you!
AWESOME!!! I've searched all over and nothing! Thanks Steve!!!!!
Youre very welcome John..Im glad this helped...thanks for checking it out.
Thanks for the tutorial! I have no plans to do this to mine (yet) but I'm sure glad you did this! Love your vids.
Thank you sir..and thank you for checking it out. That painted inner fairing changes the bike dramatically. Love it.
Great video I took mine off last winter to have my inner fairing painted. Wish I saw this video before I done it. I did a batwing before but this was the first time I did a RG.
This is awesome! By watching your videos and planning on ordering Advanblack parts, I can literally customize my bike myself! Thank you!
Thank you Tom..Im glad they help bro!
Thank you. Been looking for a video on this for a long time now
Hey Ray...glad it helped man! Or is going to help on a future project. Its not too bad..just take your time and take some pics as you go if you need to and youll have it off in no time.
MOST HELPFUL VIDEO ON THE WEB!!!
I'm grateful that you found the video informative, and I appreciate your kind words. Keep watching, and I'll do my best to continue delivering valuable content.
Thanks for this, got my 16 RG last yr and i think its going on the lift for paint, after seeing this video ill be doing the labor myself. Ill be checking more of your stuff out for sure!! That Dixxon tho!! Thanks again!
Hey russel! Thanks man! Yeah most of this stuff can be done at home and save some big money...Love them Dixxons!! be safe man!
been waiting for a video on the inter fairing removal. thank you brother
Yes sir and thank you for checking it out. I was pretty surprised no one had covered it yet myself.
Thanks bro! This is exactly what I was looking for ! appreciate it
Youre very welcome..glad it helped!
Great video bud. Exactly what I needed to see for my next project
Glad I could help!!
Very informative and easy to follow .Thank you.
Glad to help!
This was extremely helpful! Thank you for the detailed breakdown 💪
glad it helped!
Nicely done. Very much appreciated.
Awesome video! Very helpful! I have to remove mine to replace the mounting bracket that is bent from a accident from previous owner, so I will be saving this video for reference. 👍
Glad to help! Its pretty straight forward..youll knock it out!
Thank you for the information, going to do this to my 17 RGSpl as soon as the inner is ready. The color is Laguna Orange not a lot of them that color out there.
Keep the useful info coming. Thanks.
Thanks Ricky...its really not too bad at all. When you pull the outer off just take a few pics of the harness clips, the wires themselves will work out like I said...all plugs are different and they only reach so far. Love that color too btw...like this ember whisky...not many of those around here at all. Good luck to you sir and if you need any help please let me know.
Great Video! I have been looking for a good tutorial on the removal of the inner fairing for a road glide. I have a 2017 but it appears to be the same now i can get my Inner fairing painted for half the cost of buying one thank you!
Youre welcome sir...im glad it helped you. The RG inner fairing is so much easier than the sg...not hard just a little time consuming.
Awesome video!
Thanks for the detailed video now I feel confident . Thanks again
Youre welcome Bill...super easy man...You really cant mess it up. Thanks for checking it out!
Thank you for this video and relocation fairing video!!!
Love these videos 😎👏🏽
Thank you..much appreciated..IM glad the videos help!
Nothing like a painted fairing to dress up your ride. Great video. I’m sure this will come in handy someday.
thank you Brush!...much appreciated.
This is a great video brother .. thanks 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
Glad it helped you! Youre very welcome. Have a Happy New Year!!
Awesome Thank you very much for the video and education.👍👍
Perfect timing! Thanks so much for putting this together brother. Liked and Sub'd for future reference.
Im glad it helped sir! Thank you for the sub as well...much appreciated.
Great Video Brother , Big help for my Road glide .. thank you so Much
Glad to help!
Great video sir!
Thank you Kevin. Be safe!
Great video awesome detail as all ways
Thank you Michael!
Great video brother good information for the road gliders but I am a street myself but they are good looking bikes as well keep up the good work brother god bless
Hey Ben thank you for checking it out bro...Much appreciated.
Awesome video.
Thanks,
Outstanding video Steven!👍 I have a 2013, so gonna go check to see if you have something similar with that vintage. Thanks.
thank you man...thank you for checking it out!
Bruh I really appreciate this video I have been trying to find a video to help me take mine off without paying someone to do it for me.
Hey Kelvin..glad it helped man..I noticed there wasnt anything on RUclips about this and surprised me too lol
Great video. Thank you.
Thank you Shawn!
I have this same project coming up soon for vent control replacement and amp & speakers
Thanks for the video brother 🤘
You bet
@@sikbaggers you make it look easier then it is I bet, I'm gonna do it soon. Probably break the whole dam thing 🤣. I'm worried about the snap clips or whatever on the speakers and top vent
hi steve love the way you do it simple and easy keep up the good work i got a 2010 road glide going with a 2018 road glide inner and outer fairing am almost done will send you photo of it if you like take care stay safe buddy you and your famely
Sounds great! I bet thats gonna look very cool! I was never a fan of the older style RG fairings...to round but this 15 up one is nice! Let us know how it turns out and what all you needed to make the switch!
Helluva great job. 👍
Great video 👌🏼
Thank you Kenny...much appreciated brother
Thanks for the video did I miss the tool list
Thank you so much for making this video . I cant believe it took this long for someone to do it . The Fairing Exchange guys might be a little upset after this . Just joking, those guys do good work , but its good to have options.
Hey Ronnie!Yeah I was surprised to not see any on youtube...Youre right they may be upset! lol.
This is Awesome!
Thank you sir
Awesome video. I have a 2011 road glide and would like to know is it possible to remove my 2011 inner and outer faring and replace it with a 2015-2020 inner and outer faring?
Great video thank you
Thank you Bill!
Steven, we really appreciate all the time and effort you put in to make these videos to show us how to do these things ourselves.
Thank you tim and thanks for checking them out sir. Much appreciated.
Nice work
thank you smoke!
great video but do you have a video for a 2013 road glide inner fairing removal
Wow!! Steve This was very informative I didn’t have to take my bike to the dealership
How about a video working with a street glide That would be wonderful
Thanks again for your help and information
Steve did an entire build on a Street Glide and he posted all of the step-by-step videos on the build. They're a great resource.
L Perkins Yes I just watched the video It wasn’t as up close and detailed as this one
Hey William..yes sir...that was a crazy day when I shot the street glide version, about a 14 hours day. a set of bars and the inner fairing, another set of bars and 2 sets of stretched bags and fender extensions went on that day and I agree its not the best. My focus was all over the map that day. If I get another SG swap in here I will shoot the video for sure man.
Great video, how many hours does Harley say to do that
is Advanblack going to offer a painted inner fairing for the Roadglide? or did i just miss it on their site?
Steven- great video!! I have a 2015 RoadGlide myself.
I need to tighten my 12 volt cigarette lighter connector back to inner fairing. Do I need remove outer fairing or i can i just remove speaker and reach in.
Thanks again and great video.
Thanks man..you can pop the speaker grills off by getting a plastic blade under it and popping it up ...start with the inside 2 and then lift it from the outside. You can see there...but I have never really looked down in there. Might be able to get to it.
Can you tell me what all I need to purchase to convert my electra glide to a road glide?
Does this kit work on the RG Ultra? Great video brotha! Perfect explanation and demonstrations.
yep...the ultra isnt any different in the fairing area...you shouldn't have any issues...thanks for checking it out., Be safe!!
liked and subscribed
Thank you Michaël! much appreciated sir.
Sup S.B. awesome vid. so a sibling purchased a 21 RGS that was crashed and it looks like the whole faring is shifted over to the left about 1-2"in you're opinion do you think its the inner faring mount that needs to be replaced? I don't what else it can be without removing everything
The inner fairing is supported by 4 bolts to the neck and of course the fairing brackets...if the inner fairing was broke at the 4 bolts you would see it just by looking down over the handlebars...if its not broke the neck is bent. ..I can't see how it would be bent without breaking the plastic though...that would take a huge hit to bend that neck. But really though there is only those 2 contact points..the neck and the 2 faireing brackets.
@@sikbaggers thx for the info greatly appreciated. Love all your video very informative and detailed. Keep up the great work
Great video Steve, I wonder if you can do one for a 2013 Electric Glide if you get the chance in the future....thx
Hey Danny..thanks man...If I get another batwing fairing in here I surely will...Ive had a few requests for it. I did one one the 14 up batwing fairing a few years ago...wasn't one of my best videos but it will get you in the ballpark.
@@sikbaggers Thanks man, love your channel....I'm in the process of getting my bike lift and setting up to do my own work on my bike....I just got the same torc wrench as you have 3/8,, love it!
Hey Steve I know advanblack has these for a 2017 road glide supier blue but caint find it a on advan web sight do you know where I can get one and do you have to buy the doors with it let me know thank you
We currently do not have them on at advanblack but we are working on a mold now.
Hey Steve where did you get your color matched inner fairing.
Hey David...it was a take off that I had painted locally when I took my new fender over for paint. Im trying to get advanblack to do them for the rg. It fits about as good as the Harley one that comes on the bike...Harley did a piss poor job of fitting the inner to the outer specially at the top left and right side..that gap that gets bigger as you move away from the vent is just crap in my opinion. Every road glide ive had in here is the same...its not as noticeable with black inner fairing but once you get it painted...whew! I can live with it but HD should have done a better job at molding these pieces IMO
Hey bro, so everything went back together except the vent. i put the lip into the inner fairing but the sides of the edges of the vent now have a gap between them and the inner fairing. the inner and outer fairing are tight and the top center of the vent is tight to the inner fairing but the ends have a gap.... any suggestions?
I have the same problem. What did you do?
Are the newer fairings slightly cantered to the right? I've noticed it on my 2018 RG. BTW great video.
And this whole time I thought it was just me
Anyone know if you can ride your road glide without the fairing? I want to have the option of changing how the bike looks
Is it possible to put a 2015 or newer road glide fairing on a 2013 road king?
seen a guy have it done for about 15k ....id sell the bike and get a newer one for that price
I’m a street glide owner but i enjoy all your videos bro!
Reservoir covers don’t look too healthy on ol’whiskey!?
But I’m sure you have something up your sleeve addressing that!
Hey Nick....thank you man....and yes...parts are already here and waiting to be put on...probably cover that on the bars video.
Steven Housden can’t wait to see what bars ya go with! Keep up the good work my man!👍🏻💪🏻😎
cool
I HAVE 50K ON A 16' FLTRU AND NEED TO CHANGE THE FORK FLUID!! DO U HAVE A VIDEO ON THE HOW TOO??
I do not have on specifically on that BUT if youw catch this video on the fat tire install, you can see how to remove the wheel, forks etc to get to it. Then all you need to do is remove the top cap , drain the fluid and put new fluid in. In this video I added a 1 inch lowering kit but skip all that. Dont let the fluid out from the bottom...just undo the top cap, and pour it out. If you watch the whole fork leg part you will see what I'm stalking about and see the parts that you need to do. ruclips.net/video/qTqp6nneq4Q/видео.html
What size Milwaukee tool is that you are using? 1/4 " drive or 3/8 " drive 12 volt?
Its the Milwaukee M12 12v ratchet...itll be your best friend. check this link..I got mine at home depot. www.cpomilwaukee.com/milwaukee-2457-20-m12-12v-cordless-lithium-ion-3-8-in.-ratchet--tool-only-/miln2457-20.html?ref=pla&zmam=31282435&zmas=47&zmac=722&zmap=miln2457-20&gclid=CjwKCAiA1fnxBRBBEiwAVUouUiEu5fVub_Bu-8F-9WTx-5BiEHt7FjrHbtrU_uaYQZkSdi3JXQ68FhoCAF8QAvD_BwE
Thank you!
What would you guesstimate a timeframe it took you from start to finish. Thanks
probably 5 hours doing it the first time off and back on if you stick at it
I do them at motorcycle rally's in a half hour. Off and on
Can I get to the "cigarette lighter" charging port without having to completely strip the inner fairing? My port came loose and raddles while riding.
yes...take your outer fairing off like I showed in the video and its right there under the speaker pod. , easy access...tighten it down with your fingers and put your outer back on.
Hey, I don't get why u have to disconnect the turn signals...the cables don't come with the fairing no ?
Im not sure what point in the video you are refereeing too...but the turn signals are mounted on the outer fairing and this is a inner fairing swap video so at some point you will need to disconnect them to remove it.
@@sikbaggers ok thank you… I’ll try this afternoon ;)
I have to change out the bearings, I need a video on that
yeah sorry I take my bearings to HD as of now,...dont have a bearing puller or a press at the time..hopefully in the future when I add on and the room for them. Sorry I cannot help.
@SIK Baggers it's all good I was able to get to them with the help of your video and I got them done, thanks
I need professional help 😆! I own a 2018 tri glide and I want a road glide fairing on it! I've passed enough semi's on two lane highways and damn near been sucked into oncoming traffic that I'm done with the bat wing!
well without converting it to a actual road glide front end youll end with options like the sharknado fairing...which is cool but it is still attached to the forks so it moves with the front end, unlike the roadglide fairing. So im thinking you would have to same issue with that.
Great video...but i think im gonna mask mines and spray it..theres to much to remove.
Much appreciated!
HAHAHA YOU SAID NIPPLE "PLAY WITH THE NIPPLE" EASY THOUGH OR YOU WILL CATCH HELL............ great informational video as always
LOL..yes sir...get it! Thanks for checking it out man
How long to get off inner fairing to paint typically. First timer
I asked how long it typically takes to get inner fairing dismantled to paint on a 2009 road glide?
less than 2 hours, first time
Noooow theres a video lmao did it 2 weekends ago . Very easy, and not as complex as it looks
lol...yeah before I shot this one I wanted to make sure it wasnt covered already a 100 times and I was shocked there was none. Pretty easy to do though...way easier than the SG is
Kind of regretting ordering the painted faring now
well...never heard anyone say that...whats the issue?
Can I have my inner faring painted
why wouldn't you be able to? take it off and take it to apinter
What’s it look like?

Looks amazing!! Thanks Steven.
I wanted to see the inter fairing ☹️
Sorry about that Jerry...It was a long day. Here are some pics I uploaded to my google drive. If there any other angles you want please let me know and ill take more pics. I'll be doing a bars video soon so you will see it very well in that as well. Please check these pics. drive.google.com/file/d/1UOyytbMhNzXQglyRVJ-SQTn26oa724KO/view?usp=sharing and drive.google.com/file/d/1VrCFmDjsqcjsxg7Nu9qYE0TaDfTCcsUG/view?usp=sharing
A good video, I must say. But, did you ever notice that when a mechanic starts off by saying "All you have to do is", then your are in deep shit already.
I’m installing an American Suspension neck kit for a 26” wheel, would I need to take off much more then what’s in this video other then the wheel and forks here’s a link to the kit install ruclips.net/video/DvotGl0fsJY/видео.html
this will get you right down to the neck ...youll be good from there to do your kit.
The first thing you should do is find a fender cover
cover your fender,
11:53 😉
@@sikbaggers In case something falls on it like a bolt or fairing or wrench.
@@charlesboard5741 yeah so the timer I put in my last comment was showing you it is covered. In the start of the video it had fell when I was moving my camera. If you click the time I put it literally takes you to a section of video where you can see its covered.
oh my bad my man.. hey just keep them videos coming been very helpful for me to do it myself. Enjoying them all!!!
@@charlesboard5741 Thanks Charles...Yeah man I freaked when I saw it had slipped off...Big stickler on covering stuff up...im clumsy lol
I love the new Harleys I just honestly don’t think they’re worth 30K or 45K for the CVO. How can a full size vehicle cost less then 30K and a motorcycle that weighs a 3rd of a car with way less material cost almost twice what some small cars cost! They will sale for as much as us stupid consumers will pay for them. People don’t realize the amount of power us consumers have, we can control the cost of these easily. All that needs to happen is ALL of us just stop buying them for at least 6 months. I would bet my yearly salary that you would see them dramatically drop in price to try and get people to buy. If everyone would smarten up we would all pay way less for these bikes but people either don’t have patience or are in line to get the newest model and there’s makers know that. They also know that they will just extend your loan to another 12 months to lower the payment and us idiots will pay it. Come on people we are smarter then this. We need to get control of these prices and stop being ok with trucks costing 100K and a 2 wheel bike costing 30K that is only about 10K to build. Come on people
You alright there Jerry? lol its a inner fairing swap video and you seem pretty mad about the prices of cvos for some reason...while I completely agree with you...just making sure you're good man
@@sikbaggers I’m perfectly fine. I just don’t feel these bikes are worth the price these days. For the cost of these bikes you shouldn’t have to then bring it home and pay to upgrade things that’s just stupid and we the consumers are the idiots for falling for it. This happens all around us everyday. My neighbor just bought a new 2021 Ford F-250 platinum and paid 100K for it. So he just paid 100K for a truck that probably only cost 25K to make. The markup on vehicles and bikes is just a joke. People don’t realize that if you don’t buy it they have to lower the price it’s that simple. Everyone these days wants the bigger & badder bike or truck etc and they don’t care if it’s way over priced. The cost of these bikes is all our faults for paying the ridiculous prices nowadays. If we don’t keep it in control these bikes will be selling for 60K in 2 years, where does it stop? I’m looking to buy a 2022 Road glide limited and the dealership was trying to put a 4K mark up because of how difficult it is to find bikes. So basically they’re trying to take advantage of people because it’s hard to find bikes right now, it’s a joke and people will pay it because they want the bike so bad but what they don’t realize is if we all came together and stopped buying these bikes they would have no choice but to drop the price in turn we control the market. I know I might sound crazy etc but it’s simple economics and I’m 100% right. You see it everyday at clothing stores. When clothes stop selling you see them on the clearance rack, it’s that simple they don’t want to loose money so they drop the price to a clearance price but they’re still making money because of the amount of markup on the clothes. Same thing with bikes and cars they’re all marked up. Bikes are marked up way over what they’re worth. I looked at the Indian however they don’t come with the trunk in the back for passengers like the limited does. The guy at the dealership told me it would be about $4,500 to purchase the trunk separately. That’s just insane and it blows me away that people are spending their money on something that cost not even $500 to build… now that’s called stupidity I’m sorry. I guess I’m saying I wish we the people would smarten up and stop being taken advantage of! These companies have been taking advantage of us for decades and people continue to fall for it left and right. I understand the bikes are nice but we have to get a hold of ourselves and just hold out and we all benefit from it. Thx for checking in though much appreciated!
Not Sure if I will ever do a painted inner fairing but great video. I have the same RG and finding interesting things to do to mine eventually as money allows. Lots of garage work during the winter in Alaska.
Hey Steve...sorry took so long to get back to you just got back from daytona...the inner fairing makes a huge difference for sure..really sets off the bike. Im in Illinois and we have some pretty long winters too so I know the feeling lol
