took my lexan off mr metal frame widshield to put on a shorter one... got the bolts out... the old one seems glued on there on something... I do not want to rear the old one up. how in the heck does that sucked come off,so i can bolt up the new shorter one// ?
thanks for advice ... I am stumped .

 

Forgot to mention this is on a 2008 heritage .

 

If you are talking about removingthe frame of the original whindshield, you better break out a heat gun or hair dryer, and start heating up the frame.

Harley has who ever puts these together use a 2-sided sticky tape between the rames and the Lexan.

Use heat, take your time, it will come apart.[8D]

 

Thanks, i was afriad of that ...It does not say this tape is needed on the new lexan ?????

 

dang. using heat.that sucker is not budging !!

 

any other ideas guys ?

 

Looks like i will call cyclespot tomorrow, where i bought the new one, and see if they have any ideas ?

 

It is two sided tape. I switch mine back & forth. Try some heat. Get something flat w/o sharp edges (butterknife out of the drawer - **** the OL off)
Once it pops up, they'll come off. If all else fails, go to the Auto parts or paint store and get some 3M trim adhesive remover.

I've never used the new tape they give with a w/shld glass. There is enough residual. Just put my slightly bigger on on last night (the Harley 3" under one)
I have a 4" shorter, slightly narrower one for summer.

 

Voyager.... I got the same low shield from Memphis Shades that you did. Only in Gradiant Black.

You just need to heat them up a bit and then use a butter knife to get under them and pry them a way. They will come... once you get enough up just use your hands and pull away being careful not to bend them. It may seem like it wants to bend or not come off but it will. I just restuck them back to the new one and put the bolts back in. Fit like a glove.

 

Ok. will try again. Did you just use a hair dryer like me ? No prolem scratching the old shield with the butter knife ?
