hey guys, looking to put a hd windshield on 1977 lowrider, but not sure of whats compatible... theres talk about 39mm forks, not sure whats stock on my bike. i dont like the windvest or aftermarket winshields, just want a hd full size "police style" windshield on my bike. is the new hd detachable windshield gonna fit my bike? i thought sportster and dynas (except wideglide) all were compatible? any years that arent compatible with my 1977?

i have the hd windshield from 1977 mounted on the bike (my dad thought it was the sportster windshield- he bought the bike new in 1977 and had the windshield put on), but the chrome "windshield frame" is scratched and rusting and the winshield is scratched and delaminated, so if i could find a complete winshield with frame and mounting, it'd be preferable.

lemme know your thoughts. thanks in advance!

 

I "thought" those Shovels had 35mm forks. You probably will have to find something used on ebay. I haven't seen a full size tombstone for FX Shovels in decades but JP cycles might just have something like that aftermarket. Otherwise a handlebar shield will be your best bet. HD stopped making Shovel accessories 20 years ago.

 

ok, thanks for the info so far bikerlaw... can anyone confirm if my forks are 35mm? will a windshield from a 1984 fxrp work for me?

 

Maybe check www.shovelhead.us
They are the holy grail of Shovel info.
Remember, this is a forum that thinks Evo's are classics.... LOL!

 

thanks a bunch, just found a compatible one!
