Went riding today after installing my batwing fairing. Ok now Im getting a little wobble around 75mph. Is this just the wind on the fairing or is there somethung I need to do to forks like a brace? Anyone else have this issue?

You may want to re-adjust your fall away and see if that helps other than that maybe try a different angle on the fairing.

Agree. Fork brace won't help. Fall away, fairing position, and then start looking at aero things like windshield height. Stopping a wobble from fairing install is a black art. Lots of trial and error.

Thx kinda what I thought an being a aftermarket fairing prob don't help. Does it have to be level across the bottom? If you know what I'm talking about. I'll do some measuring on stuff an windshield as well, it's about 5" tall

"Fall Away" is Harley's term for steering head bearing preload. The Fall Away adjustment procedure for your 2005 VRSC is discussed here.

Not sure if it's something I can do or not

Have it checked by someone who knows the game. Important for riding safety.

Checking fall away is easy anyone can do it. Search the web for it there are a couple videos showing how, it’s simple. And if memory serves me the fallaway is suppose to be 4 1/2 inches

Update I moved headlight up as much as I could to fit fairing, test drove got up to 95mph no issues Hmmm could this be the ticket? Like to move up little more an out.

Like I said, black art. Wouldn't be surprised if what helmet you wore made a difference.
