New guy here, and this seemed to be the best forum for info so here I am.

Have a question, what is ballpark number for a factory windshield for 2017 FLSTC? I found a 2017 with only 194 miles on it at what I feel is a good price. Love everything about the bike, but the windshield is missing. Sure there are aftermarket windshields I could put on it. But seems silly to buy a Heritage Classic and first thing I'd have to do is buy parts to make it a Heritage Classic. The salesman claims it never had one, I call bs on that. Really like the bike and $13,500 out the door sounds good to me but kinda feels like buying an incomplete ride. So if they can't *** up the oem quick release windshield, where would I find one and how much is it gonna set me back?

 

Welcome. Looks like cost for OEM is $350-400. Windshield is standard equipment on Heritage, so salesman is BS'ing. Make them a final take or leave it offer at your number to include the windshield.

Thsnks for the link and suggestion. I'll call the dealer Monday and see what they say.

 

Congrats on a great bike. Some people dislike Craigslist and similar sites but you can often find what you’re looking for at a great price. Who knows, might even make a nice ride out of it. Shipping for a windshield shouldn’t be too much. Good luck.

 

The bike has quick detach hardware on it. Harley doesn't give anything away for free. That bike came with a shield. On a side note, I picked one up at a swap meet in really good shape for $50.00

 

Check out Long Ride Shields.

 

I had a 2017 Heritage, They definitely had a wind shield, I have one out in the shed....

 

As others have said the "Heritage Classic" has always come with a windshield. There was 1 or 2 years around 2005-2007 when HD had 2 models of the Heritage (the "Classic and another I think just called called Heritage ?) and one did not have a windshield. But in genral all came with detachable windshield.
There are always used windshields being sold on Ebay, craigslist etc. If you decide to go new on my Fatboy I ended up after buying 1 HD windshield changing to Memphis Shades because I like the quick detach system much better than HD and there are many more choices of windshields and a batwing fairing and are less expensive than the HD products. I have 2 different sized windshields and a batwing fairing for my fatboy and all change out in a minute or 2

 

you have the hardware, so just need the shield. OEM will be a bit spendy, so try to get them to throw it in. Or id just go to ebay. it will be like $75 with free shipping

 

Walk away if they won't GIVE YOU what belongs on the bike and see what happens. As stated, sales dude is full of ****. A person can work there and not know what they are selling!
