I am a tad under 5-11 and have a 31" inseam. The LRS is a 7". The wind barely hits the top of my helmet, which has zero effect on me but still has a nice lower profile for a windshield.

Something to consider... When a windshield pouch is removed, it'll usually leave scuffs on your windshield from rubbing against it.

My T-Bags came with a 3M film that I was supposed to put on the inside of the windshield. Didn't do it and after 10,000 miles, very little wear. I'd probably replace the windshield before scratches that i'll never see become an issue. I use the windshield bags to hold my phone, registration, insurance info and map notes. Your point is a non-issue for me.

I have never seen the two pouch before. Where did you find it?

Where did you get the bags one from? Seems a little hard to find in stock.

I bought the bike used and it was already on with the stock windshield. It has the bar and shield embossed so it's an HD part.

edit just looked online and saw a used one and they listed the original part number:
P/N 58928-08. OEM Harley Davidson

Just an FYI
The OP has a Rushmore bike, and yours is the older style.
The fairing is slightly different, and windshield mounting holes are are slightly different.

Not saying he couldn't make it work, but it won't just install without modifying.

gotcha..i knew the windshield holes are different but I did not know off hand the actual dimensions of the fairing had changed. These pouches have no cutouts for the bolts, just tabs I believe..like you said maybe it could be modded to fit?.....I was mainly referring to the fact that the wind splitter can accommodate certain pouches even though it says it cannnot. I don't think they make a new two pouch setup though.
