and just my luck one of the cheap clamps broke [:@]

 

I've had my windshield for over a year now, almost 15,000 miles and have never had a problem.

Sorry to hear that.

 

Thanks, i am sure was a fluke, and that dealer will give me another one

 

Make sure it is the one for your model. Brought up in another thread that it could be slightly off creating too much tension.

 

thanks, i checked the number against the HD P&A catalog. Just gotta get one defective clamp replaced.

 

wow your about the third person to have a clamp broke.i have had my quick release windshield for 2 yrs and put 9k miles on it.no problems.take it to the dealer and they will replace it for ya.

 

i don't think i like the windshied, it causes turbulance and noise around my shield area [:@]

i got the low profile one #58348-06

it may be for sale

 

I've used both the low and standard profile models on my FXDL and the standard profile on my FXDC. I'm 5'6" and both bikes had/have stock seat. Neither windshield eliminated buffeting. In fact, the buffeting was so bad that I would get double vision when riding over 60mph. Now I'm pretty much riding full time without a windshield.

 

My 97 Dyna Wide Glide came from the PO with a semi-quick release windshield although for all I know its considered something else. (It is attached to clamps on the handlebars and on the outside of the top of the forks. with 5/8" bolts.) Anyway, I am 6-2 and it is PERFECT for any kind of riding. Don't give up, there is a good windshield out there for your scoot that doesn't cause you to get all beat up. Matter of fact, I took mine off for a 60 mile ride and regretted that for the last 55 miles of it.
