2010 FLTRX Clearview or Cee Bailey SSC
My research is done and I will be buying one of these 2 windshields today:
Clearview 2" over stock light tint or SSC Euro 17" light tint which is 2" over stock I think. I know the 2010 windshield is mounted an inch higher than my 07 FLTR.
Both will be about the same height, both will be light tint and both are about the same price. Is it function over looks? (CV vs SSC) Both are equally important to me. I plan on adding Hoggchops lowers and ride with a 1/2 helmet, goggles and ear plugs.
I'm about ready just to flip a coin, having read hunderds of posts here and a lot of folks like both shields. Just wondering what will look best on my Vivid black bike? Which of the 2 would you buy? I'm 6 ft tall and 32 inch inseam.

Thanks for the reply. I remember reading a similar comment about the dark tint which was my original plan but now going light tint instead.
Surprised the 14" windshield works for you, a lot of folks that are shorter, like 6 ft and less, mention they like the 16" shield but would have preferred a 17".

Thanks for the offer, George. I would have bought it if it was light tint. Sorry to hear you don't like it, most folks rave about the Clearview. Maybe you need a set of Hoggchopp lowers, too?

I've got em, I just don't like the look of the windshield on the bike. It works great with no buffeting at all.

Yea, function over form, they work great but look average. I just ordered a Clearview with light tint and already having buyers remorse. I'm thinking I should have went with the Cee Bailey. We'll cee.

I called CeeBailey's to get the low down on the differance in height between the euro vs. the dome style....
Asthetically speaking, I think the dome style is gonna look better. Lookng at their measurement chart, it shows big differances between the euro style 14" I have and the dome style 14" I want...haven't received a response yet.
