I bought the short smoked windshield from Bikersdelight on e-bay last spring for $35. No cracks, no foggy look. Wipes off clean and easy to install. If your concerned about cracking from the mounting bolts, buy some bigger nylon washers at the hardware or autoparts store. A chrome accent strip will cover the bigger washers.

Hmmm. I have the 6 inch with recurve and it works great. Easily as good as an 8" standard.

smoked windshield
My 2007 RoadGlide came with 2 windshields, the stock clear one which I just put on for cold weather. The other one was the 4/5" smoked one. I couldn't hear the radio and the wind blast was too much. I bought a $ 45.00 offa E-bay and sold the Hd one there. The difference is price was big. No issues at all with the less expensive one. Go for it! Spend the difference on chrome.

I have, I bought a 6" and a 10" off Ebay for my Street Glide. Both were really cheap, but functional. they were probably $35 delivered (shipped flat). I also recently picked up a 9" Memphis Shades gradiated windshield that was pre-curved. That one was excellent quality. I paid $63 delivered for it.

i am going to try one of these as they say they are made out of mar resistant polycarbonate. as said earlier....STAY AWAY FROM SHIELDS MADE FROM ACRYLIC as they arent near as strong.
