I joined the club this weekend - 1983 Shovelhead FXRT, very original with 47K hasn't been on the road for a few years but I'll take care of that. Same bike from post #57. Glad to see a few other shovels in here.
I have the original clear windshield but it's weathered and could probably be restored. We had an Police FXRP come through the shop with a chopped windshield and I thought it looked great. My RT has the radio console that extends up higher than what looked like would work but the KW windshield has the flare flip in just the right spot to allow clearance for the radio. Here are a few pics.
