Did you have to move the clutch cable to behind the triple tree to use this windshield?
Or did you just leave it in the original bracket?

I did not move the cable (thought about it). I put a zip tie around the riser to keep the cable away from the WS bracket. It doesn't rub now.
I guess HD did not consider that when selling this windshield...

Does anyone know if the 18 lowrider stock seat will fit an 18 street bob? I really like the look of that seat.
