Uses the factory hardware all you do is replace the windshield itself
I found the HD windshield did the same thing to me. It was over 2 years ago so there wasn't as many options so I got a Memphis Shades and modified it to work with the HD hardware.

I just ordered the 25" with grey tint and got a great discount on it well thanks to Clearview Windshields here on the forum

I have an adjustable windscreen on my BMW K1200LT but which i look through constantly when its fully raised without any problems.

Does anyone know where to get hardware for the shield? The stealership want over $400 to part the hardware out.

Default CeeBaileys 'shield 4 my Rocker

When I got my '08 Rocker a couple of years ago I wanted a windshield. Got the H-D one and was very disappointed at the low height. Went on the web and after Clearview wouldn't do what I wanted (theirs were too short) I finally got to CeeBaileys.com. They worked with me and I got a custom sized shield that did what I wanted--no wind in the face with no helmet face shield. The only problem was with wind coming up from below. Solved that problem with some lowers from Memphis Shades. Had to work to get them on my larger forks, but did it. Then went out and did a flow test. It all worked good up until about 105-108 MPH. Then the wind started swirling around the SIDE of the windshield and into my face, so I flipped the face shield down. My reason for a windshield on my Rocker is comfort and not feeling like I got beat up after a ride. I use my Rocker as a tourer and it's more comfy than my Electroglide after 300 miles. Check out my 'shield at http://www.ceebaileys.com/harley/har...r_2008_ws.html
Those are my photos of my bike on the website. They say that the shield is 23", but it's a 21" one from an earlier test fit. I'm 5' 10" and I look over the shield 1" for normal riding and can tuck below it from time to time as necessary. I finally settled on a 24" tall light gray shield with a recurve on top. It works great. No helmet face shield and no wind in my face.
Can't post more photos 'cause the bike is in the shop after a crash. It'll be well soon (me, too, I hope, after 3 broken ribs, collar bone and shoulder blade heal!) and then I can show pics of the 106" S & S motor upsize with blue powdercoated jugs and heads. Bags are almost finished, too. It's my Rocker bagger and is built for comfort AND speed.
PS. It looks like Clearview finally got the message and now have decent choices for Rockers. I got a Clearview 'shield for my Honda Fury and look through it and all is just fine (why do you think they call them clearview??)
PPS. Wearing a helmet is a good idea when you crash. Broke my helmet, saved my head.
