Default Windvest anyone ?

Was looking for a windshield for my Fatboy that works with 16" Apes . I have the HD model a bit to high for me as I would rather look over than through . One last question , the HD windshield is at 21" woild cutting it down also decrease any buffeting ?

I have one on my nightrain and my brother in law has one on his fatboy, we love the windvest shield. Just give them a call and ask if they have one for your specific application.

Similar to the other post, I love my smoked, compact, removeable windscreen from HD. I just measured mine: 17 1/4" from the cut-out around the headlight to its highest point in in front of me (the symetrical center). I have excellent visability and no head buffeting. I stand 5' 10" but seem to be shrinking every year depending onwhich convenience store door tape I stand next to. Hee hee.
