Hello,
forgive me if I’m posting in the wrong place, I’m new
. So many great mods to the Sport Glide in this thread!
Has anyone done or know of how to get mid controls from a different HD model on a Sport Glide? Any info at all would be helpful. I’ve searched but haven’t found much. I understand the factory exhaust won’t allow for mids, that’s all I’ve learned.
Thanks,
-h.t.

There might be aftermarket alternatives that don't require this.

Been a while since I've posted regularly but I finally finished stage 1 last week, and I got some new vans grips on (helps a lot with vibration dampening). Very happy with the stage 1 done, power delivery is much smoother. Next I'll be putting some Rogue Rider Industries LED bulbs in my front turn signals and Custom Dynamics LEDs in the rear. I'm also going to look into what it would cost to have my fairing color matched (Tahitian Teal).

It works great for me at my height 5' 8", there is a little helmet buffeting at high speed but not enough to blur my vision like I've experienced with other wind shields and bikes. It's definitely better than the useless stock screen

You are lucky you are not 3 inches taller. When I am in a Full Face helmet, it is not bad, but I can not ride with the visor up. When I am in my half helmet, the buffeting can get so bad it tries to suck the helmet right off on my head.

It comes to about the bottom of my chin so I easily look over but no problem with visor open or open face helmet. 15" vented dark smoke Gustafsson. With the vent you only get light buffeting from around the tank.

But in function and I believe this young man that mean it does have the curb in win tunneled. Thank it’s just a little bit of air it’s not noisy really affect me much aware Shorty and a full face helmet and seem to be fine on either one very pleased with my purchase of this sweet shield! Ride hard or stay home 😎
