Default 2018 Lowrider windshield
Are there any aftermarket windshields available for the 2018 fslr yet? I'd buy the Harley windshield but I only venture out of my area once or twice a year so it seems pricey for that. Thanks!

So I guess these don't exist yet.. I would've thought aftermarket companies would have a lot of parts ready at launch. Even eBay's not showing much.

Get the Quick-Release H-D windshield that you can see just over the top of the lip on the shield.

The Q-R shield can go on & come off easy enough, once you have one for a while the cost will seem ok.

John

P.S.--I had one on my LowRider, after a few years I put a LRS recurve into the H-D frame it worked better.

Totally my opinion, don't bother. I know that isn't what you are asking but from my experience they just make your head buffer more with then without.

I haven't been able to find anyone who makes one for a 18 Lowrider either. I'm just gonna order the HD one myself...

The Memphis Shades Mounting kit MEK2013 worked for me! I mounted up a "slim" solar tinted windshield and it fit perfect.

Out of all the windshields that Harley offers, which one is best? Thinking of ordering the Wind Splitter as it has a curved lip at the top of the shield. There are no reviews for it yet so I don't know what people think of it yet.
