Rscott Posted July 8, 2012 #1 Posted July 8, 2012 I have a 99 royal star deluxe and I want to get a front fairing for it and when I put my bike info in there is nothing for my year can someone please point me in the right directions and also what later years would fit
M61A1MECH Posted July 8, 2012 #2 Posted July 8, 2012 Try these two forums over on Delphi, several folks over there have put fairings on original model Royal Stars. http://forums.delphiforums.com/vrider/? http://forums.delphiforums.com/royalstar/?
djh3 Posted July 8, 2012 #3 Posted July 8, 2012 Check out some of these. http://www.destinationcycles.com/Fairing-batwing-96-Royalstar.htm http://hoppeindustries.com/store/index.php?cPath=21_33_49 These seem pricey to me. Check the guys at www.recklessmotorcycles.com I bought one for my 900 Kawi I had to adapt but it worked well. I know they have Yamaha listings. I've noticed a bunch of our advertisers have been running ads with their company's aftermarket batwing fairings. These include: National Cycle, Memphis Shades, Kuryakyn, Tsukayu, and Dragonfly. Some even come with radio options, and they all vary.
Rscott Posted July 8, 2012 Author #4 Posted July 8, 2012 I saw some where that a rs has the same oem windshield brackets has a 99 royal star deluxe
Jonesboy Posted July 9, 2012 #5 Posted July 9, 2012 I put a HD faring on my Roadstar, has the same windshield brackets as the early Royals. Go to www.roadstarclinic.com and in their tech section they have pic's on how to do it. I checked out that route and then did my own thing. Once you get the fairing in hand you can tell what you need to do, took me two months of procrastinating. Once I started I was done in a day and a half. Good luck on the project.....
BigG Posted July 9, 2012 #6 Posted July 9, 2012 I've got a 97 Tour Classic and got my fairing from http://www.wideopencustom.com/ . They make a very nice product. The V-Star fairing mounts fit the Royal Star. They are more expensive than Memphis Shades but less than the Hoppe and the radio sounds real good. Fairing with radio and painted to match the bike was about $900. Not quite quick detach but removal only takes about 5 minutes. It keeps the wind off my hands much better than the stock windshield.

I have the same one on my 08 RSTD and also have the Serious tunner for satalite radio. I had this same one on my other bike and took it off when I sold it and made brackets to fit this one.
Rscott Posted July 9, 2012 Author #8 Posted July 9, 2012 So when ordering what f star model do I order for or just order for my bike
hunter 1500 Posted July 10, 2012 #9 Posted July 10, 2012 Not sure how different the old RSTD brackets were but they have them for the new RSTD.
Rscott Posted July 11, 2012 Author #10 Posted July 11, 2012 Ok thank u I sent a email yesterday to reckless motorcycle and they wrote back and said in two weeks they will make and carry a fairing for royal star deluxe :-)
bluerstd08 Posted August 12, 2012 #11 Posted August 12, 2012 (edited) I put a reckless fairing on my 08 RSTD after they told me that it was not possible. Ironic that a few months later its an available option. Hmm shoulda got a patent. Oh well glad other rstd riders will get to enjoy it. I made mine fit back in the early spring. http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?t=68109 Edited August 12, 2012 by bluerstd08
djh3 Posted August 12, 2012 #12 Posted August 12, 2012 So hows your fairing holding out? I really liked mine on the Kawi. Only regret was I should have investigated maybe some that fit other bikes, as the placement for the radio in the one I got (harley road king) put the radio in an interfearence place with handlebars and risers on the Kawi. Mine had 4 speakers and it didnt matter how loud you played it just about anything over 40 or so and you couldnt hear radio. I used ear buds on linger trips to hear radio.
tazmocycle Posted August 12, 2012 #13 Posted August 12, 2012 over on delphiforums.com also look at the ultra-star forum too, these guy put them on their road stars and the same mounts will fit the royal star. also look at star parts forums, tim can give you some good advice on a fairing too.
bluerstd08 Posted August 13, 2012 #14 Posted August 13, 2012 I can hear mine on the interstate pretty well. Im really pleased overal with the fairing. I ordered the Road Star version because the forks are the same width.
hunter 1500 Posted August 15, 2012 #15 Posted August 15, 2012 My WOC fairing has a Jesen radio and 4 speakers and I can here it at any speed. This is the second bike this fairing has been on in 5 seasons and it is holding up great. If it will withstand the potholes in the roads in Vt it will withstand anywhere.
pmelah Posted August 20, 2012 #16 Posted August 20, 2012 i just looked at one on reckless its the cheapest 350. no radio verses some of the others at 750 no paint or radio ill go with reckless when its time and i got the duckies saved:whistling:
NEO55 Posted August 20, 2012 #17 Posted August 20, 2012 I found this on eBay I might interested but sounds to cheap if there's such a thing. I just dont want to buy something made cheaply and going to rattle. Opinions? [/url]Fairing on eBay
