I think that fairing looks great, but the price tag is whack!

Those Hannigan's instantly make me think of 'The Road Warrior'...

I love that look, part-time anyway, but maybe a tiny bit smaller - the proportions just seem a bit wrong.

I never knew they were still around. Intriguing. Perhaps a winter remedy. Their website says '4 hours' to install.

Anybody have one? With pictures that are not, like the Hannigan website's, incredibly blurry ?

That's funny. A Harley guy said exactly that to me a few months ago at a gas stop.
4 hours was about right, quality is VERY good. I will try to post some pictures of my latest paint job on my K75 with full Hannigan fairing.

I saw another Wunderlich fairing on an R1200R at the Boone Rally this weekend. The guy said he liked it just fine.

Well, I've been waiting a year and a half for your Hannigan faired K75 pictures, I think it's time you put me out of my misery - dingle pictures would be appreciated also...

If you're still around after all this time, of course.

Thanks enderw88!

I'm not a big fan of the K75 but that is a good looking bike. How does the faring work?

Thanks, this is my fourth paint job and I think I finally got it right. It is a hard fairing to make look good. It does work well though.

I am one of the few on this forum who likes the Hannigan fairing.
I don't really mind them on R1200Rs either. I wish they would make a smaller version for us.

I spent a long time looking for a Pichler, but they are pretty scarce in the US. I saw one in Germany a few years ago and it was very nice. I liked my C bikini but I had damaged it beyond repair and decided to try a bigger fairing. I agree that it is a bit cumbersome looking. And it is no lightweight.

hey enderw88... How quiet is the Hannigan Fairing? And the information I saw has a smaller fairing by perhaps a third. Maybe some of your's comes off?

Cutting down the fairing to a bikini fairing ..... nice.
I saw this fairing on this forum somewhere however the link takes you to a fairing for an 1150r... I think.

Nope, this fairing is as solid as a rock. I am pretty sure they all come out of the same production molding...
I Like that, I wonder if he will bring one out the the R1200R I still haven't gotten around to buying...

The one for the R12R is available with or without the lowers. It only looks huge without the lower. With them..

Yeah, I wasn't sure if he meant that or not. I can remove the lowers and in the summer thats how I run or the K-Heat bakes me even more...
