I highly recommend the National Cycle shields. http://shop.nationalcycle.com

Nearly unbreakable, and they can be cut down for a custom fit. The HD shields are ez on, ez off and lock up to help keep them from being stolen quite so easy.

Well when I bought my Harley the salesman said I would not feel the wind and the Warp drive would blow all the bugs away before they hit me.LOL I guess you can't trust those motorcycle salesman I am going to give one of the National Cycle screens a try first and go from there odds are I will not be able to stand the way they look and leave it hanging in the garage.

I have a HD quick detach. I bought it for cold days and really long rides. Ya right! Now it only comes off on the hottest of the hot days. I've gotten so used to it being there the bike looks odd without it.

I'll be buying one for our trip to the Outer Banks this summer. Should I get the touring shield or what? Does anyone have that one on their Dyna?

I got the switchblade. Remember the height of the shield should hit you between your upper lip and the tip of your nose when your sittin in the saddle.

I have the low profile HD with Black. Only used once and I traded in my Fat Bob for a SG. Has a bag for it too. Give you a great price. PM me if interested.

That Windvest looks nice on the Fat Bob. I use the sport shield that Harley sells for the Rocker. It is small and has quite a bit of curve to it compared to the regular shields but I don't get the annoying turbulence that was all too common with the standard shield. I can ride interstate all day and not get beat up. Unfortunately it only fits the mid-glide fronts so your out of luck with this one but others may be interested.
