Clearview Windshield Wait??
Did you check the "blems"? I got one and the standards are so high that even though they told me exactly where the flaws where - I couldn't see them. Spoke with the people at Pro Pad flags the other day ordering a flag for a Goldwing (customer) and it would have been 2 weeks also, (small company production schedule) due to them being out of the base. We worked it out though, they sent me the pole with the custom top and I got the base from Drag.

If so, get a little longer screws for the ones that pass through the metal braces - the CV screen is quite a bit thicker than the HD one and getting them fastened down is possible but not easy. Don't need much extra - just a few more threads than you have now.

As for the Clearview itself I have been overjoyed with mine. With the stock one I was getting too much buffeting and my head was starting to feel like a kernel of popcorn in a popcorn popper. I added a set of Memphis lowers which helped but my head was still getting bounced around making my glasses rattle. I first put on the Clearview which was almost an inch higher with a curve and close to 2" wider on both sides and about 2" lower below the headlight. comfort was much improved but with out the lowers on I was getting some buffeting from below. I went to put the Memphis lowers back on but they would not fit unless I mounted them to the fork tubes below the triple tree which I didn't want to do as the new screen came farther down below the headlight. So I put on the mounts and loosened the Clearview shield so I could slide the lowers under and then used a sharpie to mark a line on the shield. I had masked it with painters tape first. I then removed the screen and cut along the line with a jig saw. Then I rounded the edge of the cut with a file and buffed the edge with a Dremel Tool and polishing compound. When I mounted the windshield and lowers on the bike it was a perfect fit. I took the bike out and it was heaven. I can now cruise at any speed I wish and my upper body and head are surrounded in a pocket of relatively calm air. Zero helmet buffeting right up to around 100 mph or so. BTW the reason I was putting so much work into this is I have a very bad neck and have had spinal fusion a few years back due to a disk that blew out crushing some nerves and paralyzing my left shoulder and upper arm. Thankfully the surgery brought the use of my arm back enough that I can function normally. I still suffer from bad neck pain as I have other bad disks so I must be careful with them. The buffeting I was getting before was causing too much pain to ride for very long.
An added note, the first time I pulled out for a high speed pass with the new set up I noticed I had lost a bit of acceleration. Nothing major but enough that I noticed, this screen is punching a big hole through the air. I will gladly trade that for the comfort it provides. Either way I can still kick my friends *** so I'm happy.
