Terrific, not much different than the speed screen actually. I have the same windshield on my MS fairing and definitely will order probably a 13 inch for winter riding.
I have to say this is probably one of the best install videos I’ve seen. Running into and dealing with those issues are exactly the things that add a lot of value to these and make these extremely helpful (and fun to watch), thank you so much for putting this together. I also have to say I am becoming a HUGE fan of you channel, I love the honesty in all your vids! Also, you have a super nice bike
I have it all done but button down up for final fit. What a hassle not as easy as your video you made it look easy because you are a better mechanic than me. Thanks for the video it helped.
It's always harder than a video - I totally agree! And doing the light and the fairing definitely adds more time than if you just did one. Glad you got it done!
I THINK THE FAIRING IS THE RIGHT HEIGHT FOR US & SHOULD ALSO B 4 U. UR RIGHT ABOUT THE HEIGHT OF WINDSHIELD, MAINLY SO U DON'T IN RAIN C THREW IT ON UR SHIELD & GLASSES OR HELMET SHIELD. (= DOUBLE VISION OR TWICE THE AMOUNT OF RAIN 2 TRY & C THREW.
I'm in NY too. Nice senic spots you have there....we are north of syracuse. Lots of senic country roads, but colder than a well diggers ass this time of year😎
Where did you buy the spacers from? I went to Home Depot out here in Cali and couldn’t find shit. Pretty upset that we spend a good amount of cash on these head lights and still have to rig it.
Like your choices of upgrades. Very clean and smart, nothing gaudy. That LRS is looking 👍 good! It's my particular favorite present HD. Wish I could buy yours when your done with it! Not a Willie G, a Moto Blonde designer series....
Haha - hey Harley! Hire me!! Thank you so much - I appreciate that! There's a fine line somewhere between clean gaudy. Hopefully I restrain myself before I cross it!
Enjoyed the video. I found you originally on IG and followed that account to find you here. I also have a 2020 FXLRS (in black of course) and enjoy seeing what others are doing to their bikes. Really wish I had found you sooner; I'm deep into Quadlock gear and could've saved a ton with your discount code. Anyway; great video, fun watching you turn a wrench. :)
Came across your channel today, and you do a great job keeping me interested. I'm a little A.D.D ;) And yes I have to have all the screw heads facing the same way!! How do you like your Ruroc helmet?
haha awesome thanks for watching! Glad you liked it! I love the Ruroc - lots of ventilation though, so for the cold weather, pretty chilly. Other than that - HUGE field of vision and the magnetic clip is awesome!
Just some feedback: acceptable wind noise, audio is very clear, I like how it looks. Need to know how well the headlight works in actual use, and best of all, I'm tall enough to see over the windshield. You're a very competent "wrench."
Great how to video. Wish I would’ve found it before I asked somebody to install my faring. All good I’m excited to get home this weekend to ride my 2020 Lowrider s with my Memphis shade faring‼️
Thanks, real informative. Too bad I can't get one for the sportster. I have a 1200c and went another direction though. Are those the rogue rider signal lights?! I just got them not long ago and love them
Nice video love the headlight. Once I have the fxrt here painted cuda gray I’m thinking of going with that headlight to incorporate the turns so I don’t have to relocate my stock turns. Be careful out there don’t want to loose to many neurons with them hits.
it took me 45 minutes to loosen up the headlight I think they used super glue too. What a pain that was. I was losing my confidence at that point but finally got it loosened.
Really great install video. As for those bracket screws, I've removed a lot screws doing installs before but have never encountered any that were installed at the factory that tight. Had to be put on with 263 Loctite which meant that Harley really didn't want those to ever be removed. Sorry, Harley.
Desperate for the headlight bracket that pushes the headlight forward in the fairing. who at Memphis shades did you speak with to get one? its no where on their site.
When you buy the RW Fairing, there's an option to add the headlight extension bracket - you can contact them or you can search for it at another shop who may carry it - I think I got mine at Get Lowered Cycles - just make sure you have the right part # for your bike if it's not the FXLRS - this is what mine was: headlight extension kit #MEB9882. You can search for that part number and see who carries it separately. Hope that helps!
Loving your mods! I did the Moons MC v3 taillight today and will be doing the Road Warrior fairing this weekend 🤘🏽 Need that headlight in my life. Such an underrated mod! Love your content btw. Binging through it.
Great video! Will be doing the same light and fairing to my '21 LRS this weekend! So with the Moons light, you do NOT need the shroud Memphis Shades sells, since you can't use the bucket from Moons and their shroud together obviously correct? I'm just wondering what specific spacers I'll need to buy, and where, for the headlight! Thank you!
cool vids,..cool content,..good to see another female rider taking control within the motorcycle community. did i see bung king crash bars on your bike?? if so,..cool deal,,,just put them on my 2013 SG,..love them...dual purpose...crash bar and highway peg....!!! ride safe..: )
Did you find the light did not want to centre on the silver ring that came with the kit? Mine is smaller than the light so it slides around on it and does not like to stay entered.
Moto Blonde Memphis Shade looks cool, good job installing it. You popped up I'm new to your channel. How long have you been riding? How long have you had your Low Rider S.
Can you put desctiption for mounting kit , headlight extension, and windshield as well can you give feedback for big radius 2 into 2 got feedback that is not good for power only for sound
There will be different part numbers if you don't have a Low Rider S - happy to though if you do! As far as the big radius - I know that 2-1 give more power than 2-2 - but I really liked the sound and the look of the big radius. Eventually, if I do more upgrades I will probably change it - but for now its fine for me!
@@MotoBlonde thank you for your replay , I need parts for Low rider S and I do have same thoughts in regards of big radius , I really like the way they look and sound again thanks for replay
I’ve watched a lot of install videos On the road warrior and this was the most helpful it seemed in the other videos they made it seem much more of a pain in the ass this was straight to the point and a huge help thanks for the content 🤙
As someone who hates hitting their head.... watching you hit your head not once but twice especially after steipping some bolts made me so sad. But you did a great job 👏
Hey I love all you vids and you have given me so many ideas for my low rider s... I want to do the same to the front of mine can you tell me what spacers you got and how many you used?
Shoot I don't think I have the bag anymore - I picked them up at Home Depot or Lowes - just some nylon spacers in the aisle with the screws! If I find the package I will let you know!
Just grabbed them at Home Depot - they didn’t have black ones though so one day I might search around - you can’t really see them but I know they’re there 🤣
@@MotoBlonde Or you could just hit them bad boys with a can of Black Rust-Oleum Spray Paint if you can see the white spacers or it is just bothering you.
How did you get the headlight to sit in the bucket? I have the problem that my fly eye headlight just "sits" on the silver ring, I can't make it sit securely in the bucket. When I try to put the black outer ring on, everything is just loose and spins..
My name's Drew and I'm in Madison, WI area. I have a 2015 softail slim. In regards to your question about who else has to have all the fastener heads lined up in the same direction... I'm the exact same way. I had to make sure that the Phillips head screws for the brackets that hold the backrest pad on my sissy bar were all lined up the same way. One question for you is how do like that headlight at night over the stock daymaker?
Hey Drew! To be honest, I don't do a ton a night riding out here - and I didn't do much past dusk with the stock light before I changed it right away to the Moons. It's definitely brighter and I think it lights up a bigger area, but I can't really make a fair judgement because I just didn't use it that much.
Oh ok. I was only wondering because I work second shift so it's dark out when I leave work. I've been considering the daymaker because my buddy's 2019 slim came factory with the 7" daymaker where as my 2015 slim came factory with the 7" halogen headlight. I put one of those Sylvania silverstar bulbs that is supposed to be whiter and brighter in mine and it's definitely an improvement over the stock halogen bulb but the 7" daymaker is still considerably brighter than that. So I was just curious about what you thought since you have both. Thanks for the reply though. I appreciate it.
Hi Moto.blonde HD👑, I was just checking back to see if you had swapped to try the 11" shield yet. I never had a shield on any of the bikes I've owned. Thanks for all your work and info. You've stirred my interest now. Have a great holiday! 👍😎
I’m 5’ 7” and run the 11” I tip it forward in the middle of top bracket and all the way towards tank on bottom and the wind goes right over my head. Hope this helps.😁
What do you think of the new camera view with the fairing?
Terrific, not much different than the speed screen actually. I have the same windshield on my MS fairing and definitely will order probably a 13 inch for winter riding.
@@williambeebe7285 awesome! I’m definitely going to order a taller one for winter!
The only hang up is that, when I visited the Memphis Shades website today, they didn't have any clear windshields in any height.
All good I reckon and wind was not an issue : )
I have to say this is probably one of the best install videos I’ve seen. Running into and dealing with those issues are exactly the things that add a lot of value to these and make these extremely helpful (and fun to watch), thank you so much for putting this together.

Thank you so much, I really appreciate that!! Knowing what NOT to do is always helpful for me 😆 Thanks for being here!
I’d have guessed 9 inches was just right for you too! Lol! I can’t be the only child that went there with that joke! ;)
The worst part for me was the headlight adjustment and getting the fairing to align with the headlight...
another video i have watched to the complete end and the red line doesnt show it. anyway great video
I'm only seeing the chrome trim ring on Memphis Shades. Did you paint it black or did that come with Moons headlight?
Came with the Moons bucket
I have it all done but button down up for final fit. What a hassle not as easy as your video you made it look easy because you are a better mechanic than me. Thanks for the video it helped.
It's always harder than a video - I totally agree! And doing the light and the fairing definitely adds more time than if you just did one. Glad you got it done!

So glad you survived the install. The ride made everything better. Ride on.
Great stuff, all of it. The backround music not so sure. Your personality and wrenching 10/10.
haha fair enough! I'm working on different music! Thanks for watching!
You should put the mirrors above the bars
I like mine underneath too. It’s not a safety issue.
Well I stopped watching this video because of the sounds you had in the background while your talking. Sorry ....
That's definitely the winning formula right there! Two awesome companies with awesome people behind them!
Couldn't agree more!
I'm in NY too. Nice senic spots you have there....we are north of syracuse. Lots of senic country roads, but colder than a well diggers ass this time of year😎
100 percent accurate! Ya just don't snap your fingers and BAM, its done! Totally get that!
Where did you buy the spacers from? I went to Home Depot out here in Cali and couldn’t find shit. Pretty upset that we spend a good amount of cash on these head lights and still have to rig it.
WHY! Yes we have ALL been there. LOL, it’s all good part of the fun.

They are! Had them on my sportster too!
Good job it’s always a bit of fiddling around to get things right. I have to tell you I felt that head bump clear down my spine, ouch 🤬🤬🤬!!!
😂
I also installed the same product on FXLRS. Turn signal is to operate, but the daylight does not light up. why is it?
Possibly check the wiring - maybe the plugs for the running light/high beams got mixed up?
@ 02:16 "if your gonna keep your stock headlight"...
I was waiting for her to say "I'm not so I'm just gonna cut it out" lol
😆hahahaha
How's the headlight at night? Everything looks great, by the way👍🏻👍🏻
Bright! I haven't done a ton of night riding out here, but that thing is crazy bright! Thanks for watching!
Hey finally uploaded! Nice look, I dig it. I like how it pops off real easy
Finally! Only took 12 hours 🤣
Yeah it’s definitely easy to take on and off, love it!
Nice video love the headlight. Once I have the fxrt here painted cuda gray I’m thinking of going with that headlight to incorporate the turns so I don’t have to relocate my stock turns. Be careful out there don’t want to loose to many neurons with them hits.
Haha I think they're all gone anyway! That would look awesome!
it took me 45 minutes to loosen up the headlight I think they used super glue too. What a pain that was. I was losing my confidence at that point but finally got it loosened.
heat it next time, thats how harley does most of their stuff i have learned haha what a pain
Really great install video. As for those bracket screws, I've removed a lot screws doing installs before but have never encountered any that were installed at the factory that tight. Had to be put on with 263 Loctite which meant that Harley really didn't want those to ever be removed. Sorry, Harley.
Thanks!! I bet you're right! I'm sure you could get around them - but it's so much easier with them gone. I'm still going with superglue ;)
Good job ! Jeez you got some nice scenery around you there I am jealous all that blue sky nice roads looks great . : )
Thanks for watching! Can't wait for that weather again!
Which height windshield did you end up going with? I'm as short as you and figured it would be a good starting point when I order the road warrior!
I did the 9" - recently got the 11" and that works great too! More riding in the spring to really test them both out!
Hello, the windshield looks just rite to me

heat the screws up with a hot gun and they will come out very easy

Did you find the light did not want to centre on the silver ring that came with the kit? Mine is smaller than the light so it slides around on it and does not like to stay entered.
I didn't find that it slid around on mine!
I love that grey Road Glide!
Great video as always! What torx size did you use to get the stock bracket off?
Thank you!! I don't remember, it was last year!
Cool led light and fairing 😎 I think they look great on the bike 👍 Ps the video and audio is fine going down the road.
Thank you!
Just this video I needed for my bike ✌🏾
You should really wear your helmet while working on your bike
😂😂you’re not lying!
What’s the part number on the headlight led adaptor and where can I get them?
I got mine right from the MOONSMC website! It’s the 5.75 bucket kit under LED lighting.
I didn't see the link for the lighthous.
Moto Blonde Memphis Shade looks cool, good job installing it.
You popped up I'm new to your channel. How long have you been riding? How long have you had your Low Rider S.
Hey thanks for being here!! I got my license back in 2010 - just got my Low Rider S this summer! I'll have a video on all that soon!
@@MotoBlonde can't wait
What a beautiful ride that looks like. Nothing like that here in So Cal :/
It's dark and cold now, don't be too sad, LOL
Great 👍🏻 video
I enjoyed the video.

So true! Thanks for watching!

The Memphis shades fairing looks good on the bike
What kind of spacers did you use? I'm currently working on installing my moonsmc on my lowrider harley.
Hey sorry for the late reply! They are just nylon spacers I picked up at Home Depot - nothing crazy - was in the aisle with all the screws!
@@MotoBlonde Thanks!! I did find them :)
Does anyone know if the moons led light will fit in a 2018-2022 fxbb street bob stock bucket?
Yea they call it ocd lol

yes!
Great install you make it look so easy

i have the road warrior on my road king and love it! I use the 15" screen.
Awesome! I think I'm going to try out the 11" just to see the difference, especially for the winter!
Dope. What size are the spacers?
3/8 x 1
That nose lol 👃
Ok I’ve watched them all, now what hehe
haha! stay tuned!
Check your link on those stickers. Chrome couldn't find it.
Thanks for the heads up! I redid it - hopefully it's good now!
Just checked and it is working.
How tall are you an where does wind hit you now? Thanks
I'm 5'1" - this windshield it hit the top of my helmet, now I have the 11" and it's much better!
Are your bars and risers stock?
Bars stock, risers are 8" with 2" pullback Bung King
what size spacers? and where did you buy? going to be installing today.
Sorry for the late reply! Did you install it?
@@MotoBlonde yes ma’am ended up using shock absorbsion bushings from auto parts store.
What size spacers
Looks great but how much did it cost? $700, 1000. This seems way overpriced for a headlight and windshield.
My headlight was 150$
If you don't mind me asking where did you come across those spacers?
Just grabbed them at Home Depot - they didn’t have black ones though so one day I might search around - you can’t really see them but I know they’re there 🤣
@@MotoBlonde Or you could just hit them bad boys with a can of Black Rust-Oleum Spray Paint if you can see the white spacers or it is just bothering you.

Do you get a red light on the gauge when you turn the highbeam on?
How did you get the headlight to sit in the bucket? I have the problem that my fly eye headlight just "sits" on the silver ring, I can't make it sit securely in the bucket. When I try to put the black outer ring on, everything is just loose and spins..
Hmm I don't think I had that issue - did you get the Moons bucket?
Whoa!!!!! She is smokin!!! The bike is awesome also!!!
