Quick Detach Windshield
Can anyone tell me if they have any experience with the new HD quick detach windshield (PN 58346-06)?
I am 5'10" and want to know if this is like most of the other HD shields (usually suck, no adjustment and buffet like crazy).
I currently have a small sport shield now, but would like better coverage.
Any input would be greatly appreciated.

I have one and I like it. I'm 5' 11". The only adjustment is about 2" on the fork tube. I keep mine at the bottom and I look over top of it. If I put it as high as possible I would be looking right at the very top of it.
The only buffeting I have noticed is when there is a cross wind. I pretty much stay close to the speed limit, if you are someone who likes to ride a little fater the buffeting may get worse.

Thanks for the info Blaster.
I like to look over the shield as well, not through it.
I often ride 75-80 MPH, but am encouraged by your experience.

i am the same height as you are and LOVE The shield... i like to look though my shields and not over them... but you can adjust where you put it on the forks so you can lower it or raise it!

RE: Quick Detach Windshield
Mine is the HD compact version.......looks more mid-sized to me but compact is what the MoCo calls it.
I prefer to look through my sheild..........easy enough to adjust up and down the forks......do get some buffeting though.
