RE: Which windshield for Sporty?
We can all tell you what we like but what doesSHE want?
Does she want to see over it?
Does she want it to block her hands?
Does she want it to be tinted?
Does she want to attach bags or a radio to the windshield?
ps. For the HD price you get a windshield that is gurarenteed to fit her model. You may find the aftermarket shields cost the same if not more for something you may need a vice and a hammer to bend the brackets into shape in order to fit.

The Memphis Slim is hard to beat IMHO for 155.00 Looks fine mounted but if want it off takes 5 secs. The mount stays on the Forks but not that noticable ... But I think looks just as good as any permanent mount and this still gives you the option...

I have the non-detach HD super sport one. It's pretty cool looking, for a weenie shield. It would probably be very effective for a shorter rider; at 6'1" it keeps the wind off my torso and smoothes everything out at high speed but it's not as quiet as the huge detachable HD touring one that came on my bike (bought it used). That one was plush but ugly as the day is long.
