Since then I've heard they're now offered in black but I haven't verified this.
I can verify they now do, although I do not care for this windshield, too much buffeting, the airstream is right in my face.

This is the only windshield I will ever have, but it works surprisingly well. I am sure not as good as a proper windshield, but I just can't make myself use one of those. I ride my buddy's bikes with them sometimes and I feel completely disconnected from the road. My brother in laws street glide does the same thing.
