I'm wondering if anyone may know the answer to this, I picked up a steal of a deal on a 1984 flhtc with the rubber mount evo motor, bought it from the second owner who has had it for the last twenty years, I want to change the windshield to a lower sleeker version but have hit a stumbling block, the earliest ones I can find are for 86-95 dressers and from the looks might work but I'm not sure, any help would be appreciated

 

welcome to the forums

check out the evo section:

smart guys there.



many of us cut our windscreens with a dremel, jig saw, rotozip and then polish the cut edge.

if you are going 2"...do a practice cut at 1"...a guide is a good idea- and a sharp jig saw maybe best the first time

Hi from the UK and a fellow Evo owner. As Mike suggests, pop over to the Evo section, to meet other owners.

As for cutting your current windshield, or using a lower one, be careful of what you wish for! I've ridden behind windshields of many shapes and sizes for over 40 years and can assure you that at speed air takes the shortest route. If you use or cut a shield down to chest height that it where the supersonic air will hit you, which may be fine if you life year round where it is usually hot, but not so good further North.

Cee Baileys sell suitable shields for your bike, in different heights. I haven't personally used them, but have ear-marked them for the future, when I need a replacement for my own '83 batwing.
