Mine broke around the right side where the slot is to mount. Didn't over tighten nor torque. Shield isn't moving but just the mere fact that it broke didn't make me a happy camper.

Yep, same problem here after 3 weeks. I torqued mine down with a proper torque wrench too FWIW.

I'm not badmouthing LRS and I would have bought a replacement POLYCARBONATE windshield from them if they made one in the size I wanted. They didn't so I went with Fast Aire and am very happy.

The other two shields I've been using are the stock EG and stock SG shields and though they are two and three years old respectively, neither has any problems....of course both of those shields are Polycarbonate (Lexan) NOT acrylic.
The bottom line (IMO) is that Acrylic is an inferior material for windshields and I won't be buying another one.

YMMV,

I am with you, it's been on the bike for about 3 or 4 years and very satisfied with it. I'm not complaining just confirming that mine has the same issue

Had the same problem with a different shield (twice). I found that the inner fairing, above the center brass insert had excess plastic that had not been cut away. The shield was being pressed against the plastic causing it to crack. Since cleaning off the excess material, my new shield has not cracked

I contacted them yesterday to let them know about my minor crack. Since I'm within their 6 month warranty, they're sending me a new one. I'm going to upgrade to the Polycarbonate for the difference in cost $25 or so. There are bigger things to worry about going wrong on these bikes but I'm very happy with LRS's customer service and the performance of the shield overall.
