Default Amazon windshields experience?
Has anyone bought this "Amazicha" brand windshield for their bagger? The reviews look good but the price looks too good. Im looking at the black 7" for my 2016 street glide special

Without looking at it I would usually suggest an LRS shield. Hard to beat the price and quality for said price.

Okay, I looked at it. LRS.

It's ABS plastic. In other words, it's not acrylic or polycarbonate. That's why it's so cheap. Other than that, I don't see a problem with it if that's what you want. Go for it.

ABS is a lower cost material, it scratches, cracks and shatters easier (lower impact resistance) than polycarbonate. I would spend a little more and go with LRS

I put a 6in on my 2011 Electra and I like it for the price it is ok. I got it because I was experimenting with windshield height, put it on and rode it. No problems so far.

You seldom see anything bad said about them. I love mine. And, if I recall correctly, as long as you don't take the protective film off you can return it is it's, say, the wrong size.
