I ended up buying a 22" Rifle replacement windshield to try it out,... and well,... I didn't care for it. I ended up riding without it on my annual trip. I must say that the customer service was great. Perhaps a wider version of the shield would work better? Anyway, I'll be listing the windshield on Ebay in the weeks to come. I'll post a few pictures of the windshield before I get rid of it.

Much thanks for the good and timely data! The short one "was" on my list to buy before your info. That Rifle replacement someone mentioned looks nice and a little taller.

It's a Danny Gray seat. A popular replacement option for the Rocker. Search for it in these forums and you'll find lots of info.

I just got my Rifle windshield in the other day. Went to the HD shop to get the mounting hardware and they wanted over $400. Does anyone know of a place where I can get the clamps and mounting hardware for the windshield?

The riffle windshields are made for the HD hardware so even if you were able to source different mounting hardware elsewhere, I'm guessing the mounting holes will not line up. My stock HD shield was damaged so I purchased a Riffle replacement. I did buy by original windshield and hardware used in ebay. Cheers.

Does anyone know that the diameter of the forks are? The quick release clamps come in three different sizes and I want to make sure that I purchase the right ones.
Thanks,

Will

So i bought the windshield and hardware and used it to go to Daytona and didn't like it. So PM me if you interested in buying it. I have everything but one of the cams.
