Default Last Road King Question - Windshield

Again sorry about the many posts.. The stock shield is too high. I really would like to get a shorter shield. Any suggestions? I was thinking the HD 16 inch unit.. Thoughts?

Many options available, including cutting it down. Cee Bailey makes a 15" one made out of tougher material than HD. LRS makes replacements as well. Both are probably cheaper than HD.

Cutting it is quite simple. Here's one of a hundred videos on how to do it.

I purchased LSR recurve 18" for my RK. It is actually 17.5". I works really well and at a good price. No harware included so you have to mount it on your existing stuff, a little bit of a PIA but worth it.
