Default Sheild Adjustment on a Heritage

Someone suggested on another post that you can adjust the tilt of the windsheild on a Heritage. I asked for details with no response. I've looked in the manual, and looked over the front of the bike as well. I cannot see how it can be done. It would be great if it were possible to do this - mine needs to be tilted back a bit. Am I missing something - can this be done?

I can't see it except for some drilling and such.

No adjustment with the stock windshield unless you modify it yourself. The aftermarket replacement shields do adjust like memphis Shades or National Cycle but you will also need to change to their mounting setup (bolts)
