Default RE: RKC Windshield

I bought the 2" shorter from HD for my RK Classic and I like it a lot. Much better line of sight and only a little more wind. Problem is, my wife hates it. If I lift myself in my seat, I understand her point. It's like no windshield for her. So... we'll see where this goes. Need another set of hardware so I can switch back and forth.

(And, by the way, they're not kidding when they caution about torquing down the hardware trim. They crack very easy. Go easier than you'd think and use plenty of lock-tite.)
