Benway, I know Harley sells replacement plastic in a few different height sizes. Aftermarket does also, I'm sure.

I JUST bought the "fangs", and I love them. No, I can't smoke a cigar (YUK!) while riding. I don't quite understand why people say they don't like windshields because they like being in the wind. I get a lot of wind around my face, which I love. But no more buffeting. Some people don't like the looks. On the Heritage, I think it looks just fine. More importantly, they work. I did also get a new seat which sits me more forward so I think that helped too, but once I put the wind deflectors on, THAT was the key.

Hi all, I picked up a set of air deflectors today and I will install them tomorrow and give them the test. I will update the results later.

I got em on and went for a 100 mi test ride. It was windy and everything went perfect! Problem solved. No more head shake and my glasses were steady as a rock. My machine just keeps on getting better with every mod I make. Millions of thanks to all you folks for sharing your knowledge and experiences with me.
