Default RE: Softail Custom windshield

I would have to say Memphis Shades for cost and style, hands down. They fit more contour to your bike does than does the windvest, and tighter in that there is no gap, plus they have color to them of which is a safey thing in that people can actually see the color that is at the bottom of your windshield. You will save at least 100 bucks as opposed to the HD one,or the wind vest, and Memphis Shades really stands behind their product. Another thing is I'll tell you is once you get used to the windshield and take it off, you will put it back on and it's doubtful whether you will ever take it off again. IMO.

Love that little Cobra shield. It's not on their Web site. Where did you get it?

I tried the windvest windshield on my 08 custom and it just didn't work. Went to a quick detachable from harley and never looked back. Wish I would have bought it in the first place, would have saved me alot of time and money.
