Default Memphis Shades windshield

Does anyone know of another company out there that makes a windshield that will fit the Memphis Shades Batwing? I'm looking for a 9" windshield that is black smoke throughout (not gradient). I know they make a 5", but I need one a bit taller. Thanks!

Default Any of the Harley windshields will fit if

you're wiling to drill 2 of the holes a little bigger, The center hole already lines up so all you need to do is make the 2 outside holes just a little bit bigger. I've done it on 2 windshields designed for the HD batwing and it works great. That way it increases the choice you have now on screens. Only thing is, don't try a Cee Baileys recurve. The M/S batwing slopes just a little more than the OEM fairing. I ordered the 14" one and when I put it on, it was almost in my teeth.

Default Yup, no problem

You'll need a couple of larger diameter plastic washers since you're making the two outside holes bigger than stock.
