Default windshield options

Hi all,

My parents have a 2015 Triglide and my father asked me to look into windshield options.

They are not to internet savvy so i said i would ask here.

There bike is currently 100 percent stock minus an added on 12v port in the tour pack.

My dad drives and my mother rides, they are both relatively short. My dad being 5'3".

I bought a Fat Bob and some window tint to tint my headlights/tail lights for a better look. Now my dad would like a tinted windshield for his trike. After trying we both ran out of patience and gave up on tinting the stock windshield.

SO. What do you recommend for a lightly tinted replacement windshield? What are the differences in "re-curve" and what not. Also what is the stock size? Right now, it is right at or below his line of vision.

Thank you for the recommendations

Although I do not have the 2014 or 15, I have two Baileys wind screens and like them.
Link below is to the 2014 - 15 models

I went with the Cee Devil on my 2013.
l have the short for summer, and tall for cooler weather.
At the time I ordered they were $50.
Like other brands they have versions with curve at top that helps reduce some of the back draft.

I have a Klockworks 8 1/2 " lowered to about 7 1/4. As short as he is a 6 1/2" would probably work and keep him looking over it. The HD windsplitters look good, and the dealers have demos to try.
