I paid $399 no audio, shipped free. I think I got a good deal. Not sure I could see over an 8" screen. Mine came with a 5". I just need some road time to really test it out.

 

So, when shopping for a shield, would I look at a shield that would fit a Street Glide for example? Would those work on our fairings?

 

I have the Reckless 4 speaker Batwing fairing for my 2018 Heritage. It comes with an Infinity Bluetooth head unit and 4 Rockford/Fosgate 5 1/4 in speakers. It was a relatively easy install, and I think it looks and sounds great (even at interstate speeds). Base price was $925 which is not bad if you price an empty fairing then add a decent stereo. I suppose if you color matched, it would obviously up the price, but if you have someone else do the painting, you're only adding the cost of having it painted. I love mine, and have zero "buyers regret". Hope this helps.

But will need a quality amp, as standard radios for this only put out about 25 watts per side--not nearly enough to hear at over 45 mph. My Street Glide has the Boom speakers and amp, with 75 watts per side, and I still have to ride with the volume up all the way at 70 mph.

 

I have handlebar speakers and use XM radio. Works great for me. I just like the classic look of the heritage with the windshield. Good luck. Like some said its your bike and do what is right for you,
