Default 2022 CVO Triglide windshield

Has anyone bought a new CVO Triglide? What do you think of the short windshield? I’ve only put 200 miles on mine but I don’t think it does much good.

Yup, useless. Took it off immediately and reinstalled one of my old ones.
Plan on eventually getting one of the wider Freedom shields.

For looks the factory shield looks good but I use a 8” LRS Dark Tint it does help with some glare

Sorta related...I replaced the OEM on my '18 T/G with a 10" light tinted Freedom "Touring" Shield.

Definitely worked much better.
The only issue that I've had with it is that as it got older it seemed to be "drooping" down and the "wings" that extend to the sides rub against the top of the fairing.
I placed small sticky furniture "pads" under the shield and that helps.

On a side note I replaced the OEM mirrors and the lower chrome windshield trim with fancier mirrors and he gap between the mirrors and the windshield is very tight.

i've had a bad track record with windshields

bought my bike used with 6500 miles on it, noticed it had a small crack that grew larger as time went by, i replaced it with the HD touring shield that is 10" but also a bit wider, installed it with a torque wrench, and it cracked at one of the fastening points withing a week....my dealership is great to work with and I asked my parts guy about it and no questions asked, replaced it for free....the new one already has some small cracks starting, but they have not grown

the next one is a the beefiest and strongest aftermarket option I can find....done replacing crap with crap

I didn't think I would like it so I asked dealer to swap it out before purchasing new CVO TG.

Reckon that depends if you want to look over it or through it, especially in the rain.

The wife is only 5’4 and with the short windshield the wind hit her in the top of the lid, got one that was a inch or two over stock height and she reports that she doesn’t get beat up anymore.

the stock screen is about a 4” version of a wind splitter…. As stated it’s useless

If interested…. I have these two available for sale

7” dark smoke wind splitter was on my Tri Glide for 500 miles like new, only marks are from mounting which won’t be seen on the bike

10” light smoke wind splitter Brand New in the box, never been opened
