Probably a dead horse subject, but I would like some opinions on replacing the HD shield on my '09 Ultra. Need some feedback on which work and which do not.

thanks

Hands down the new touring shield from Freedom. It's wider and offers more wind protection and less buffeting with the best customer service around. I have one on my 09 Ultra now.

Currently at Thunder Beach and demoed a Street Glide CVO which (I think) has the 7” wind splitter as it’s stock windshield. Loved it (5’8”). Gonna get one for my SGS.

I have an LRS Flat Top and as well as a tall shield with a vent from Clear View Shields for when my wife is with me. Both are great. LRS has sales often.

I just picked up an 8 inch Freedom Shield for my 2019 Street Glide. I am 5'11 and have a Mustang Wide Tripper seat. It has eliminated the major buffeting and I can see right over top of it.
