Can't remember if it was that company or not but I bought one of those shorts on eBay and it was crap. The wind came over the top and beat me to death at anything over 45mph. I have a CV Recurve and it is a pleasure. The CV cost over $100 but the diff is night and day.

Any shorty windshield will beat you to death at 45 mph. It's in the height of the windshield and not the company who makes it.

I bought from that same company for my 2007 Ultra, took it off and threw it in the trash about 2 months later, it scratched, doesn't clean well, doesn't come pre curved it is flat.....Itoo put a recurve on it and on my 2008 Ultra, love them, they are even legal.... they have the DOT stamp on them, the other did not!!!!

I don't know about this one, but there are some pretty crappy windshields sold out there regardless of the low price. At the very top of the list is Sin City Windshields or something like that. I ordered a 6" just because it was so cheap and figured I could use another shorty windshield. TOTAL crap. It wasn't even cut even with rough edges. Ultimate in poor quality. I didn't expect money back or anything of the sort for the such a cheap product, but I did send them an email telling them that the windshield wasn't even symmetric in size. No response of course. I'll neverbuy anyones windshield that isn't precurved. Those damn flat windshields put a lot of stress on the fairing also. You can get a 5" or 7" Cee Bailey precurve standard shape windshield for $35-$45. Top quality that doesn't scratch
