Post a pic, someone may be able to identify what manufacture.
'cause I don't believe all manufactures hardware are compatible with each other

I've always used HD quick disconnect hardware and Long Ride Shields glass with recurve at the top. I don't use it often but it's nice when needed.

sorry, I guess auto correct must’ve got me. There are mounts on the top of the forks, but not on the bottom. I’m just looking for something that is quick detach that works and unfortunately it appears because it’s so old that I can’t get it from Harley not to mention if I don’t have to spend a fortune on it I would prefer not to
