Default Windshield ?'s

I'm running a MOCO 7" smoked windshield on my FLHTC, and would like opinions from others that are using the new 7" flared as to the difference between the two. At roughly $160 any info would be great.

Save yourself some money and buy an LRS windshield. They have numerous sizes and tints to choose from and they are a lot less expensive than the H-D products. I just got a LRS 9-inch Classic Flipup in light grey tint for my Ultra and couldn't be happier with it. The quality is as good or better than the 10-inch lightly smoked H-D windshield I replaced and it was $69.99 compared to the H-D windshield that is listed at $124.95. LRS has a windshield that compares to the Harley one you are interested in. It is called the X-Stream Flipup and sells for $89.95. It comes in 7,8,9 and 10 inch in clear, light gray, medium gray, dark gray and black. I had no problems with my new LRS windshield, but I have read on this forum that their customer service is topnotch if you have any issues with their products.

Here is a link to their webpage: http://harleyshields.com/index.html

Take a look at: www.fastaire.com I'm running one of his new shields that does'nt have the flip at the top, but a gentle curve. Mine's a 7", light tint. It works great on my 07 SG. You can also call Jim at Fastaire and he will get you what you need at a great price, provides excellent service and shipping.

+1 for LongRide shields...


As a guy who has around 15 shields, the LRS models are the ones that I actually use. Specifically, the 10" recurve and the 10" X-Stream.

Fastaire.com You can't beat the price, so if you end up with one too short or too long, you can get another one for about $41.00. I have two. One clear, one tinted.
