RE: Need a windshiled for 07 Nightrain
Heres my ****s then, don't put a windsheild on a train.Sell it and go buy a current-trend-of the- yuppies- bagger with a big windshield and maybe a lovely cupholder and gps and maybe a cappaccino machine blah blah blah....Just jokin' dude.I don't think they look good on trains but it's your bike and if you want to cover the sheetmetal with hot pink fur do it.F everybody's opinion.

Memphis Shades got one that has aslight shade of black at the bottom of their shield.
Rio Grande is a good one, and once you've ridden any distance with a shield you will never ride w/out one again.
No regrets here.

Mewmphis Shades has what is called "Solar Tint" I think is what you are talking about.
Here is an "El Paso" on a Fat Boy.

RE: Need a windshiled for 07 Nightrain
Wish I could find the picture I know I have of it someplace, but a guy around here has a "chopperized" (is that a real word?), or customizedNT that he made a"windshield" for.
Its more of a wind deflector in that its not see through at all. But made from black painted 1/4" thickplexiglass. Its only about 6" or 7" high being attached tostraight 4"(I think) risers and extending from just abovethe tripple tree toabout an inch or soabove the level of the bar.
Heused a heat gun to put a bend in each side that matches the one in thehandlebars and from that bend outwards it tapers down from the top until itends about2" high just inside theswitch housings. From the side you can seeits tilted back on top to the same angle as the fork tubes and risers.
Add in a very thin seat to lower him on the bike and according to him it worked nearly as well at keeping the bulk of the air off his head and upper chestas thelittle shorty windshield on his Street Glide did.
