Clearview is well worth the wait...

There is always Memphis Shades, Fast Aire or Cee Bailey's

I ran into these guys last summer but don't have their windshield yet. They claim you can rub the surface with steel wool and not scratch it. He doesn't have all models of Harley yet but is working on it..I think he has the Ultra and Road Glide right now. Might be worth checking out: www.f4customs.com

does NOT offer Road Glide...


Fastaire is a good way to go if you are undecided on height - his shields are priced Very low - good shield and very good customer service... by several...

Are you saying their on-line order system will not let you order one?

I was going to order one today before the price increase next year.

I will give it a try and see what happens.

I just ordered one on-line and as far as I know it went through. Says 2-3 week wait but since I am in Indiana where it snows I am in no hurry.

I ordered a clearview on 12/3 and it will be delivered tomorrow(12/21),I think there faster then what is stated on the website. Clearview makes a very good windshield,this is my fourth one,I use a Fastairefor real warm weather and local riding and the Clearview with a curve for touring and cold weather.

They are probably faster than you think. Go with fastaire if you cannot wait, they are great to deal with and have good prices.

I have purchased inexpensive, but for me acceptable, dark smoked 4" and 8" shields from Americanthunder on ebay--about 25 bucks. They are shipped flat and fit perfectly.
