tourglide windscreen size
Hello again, i am thinking of buying a new screen for my 89 fltc i want the chopped look to make the front look more up to date ! Can anybody suggest one i quite like the look of a roadglide and could make a filler piece for the front?
has anybody tried to fit any thing to an fltc apart from conversion to single headlamp?
Also does anybody know if the headlamp scowl for the road glide would fit the tourglide with minor mods?the one from paul yaffe.

Hi graham happy new year to you !!
No i have the tourglide screen but thinking off trying to put the
Roadglide screen on a tourglide fairing?
If the screen would basically fit but leaves the arch void
This could be fabricated to hide by filler panel?
It a question of how the width and overall shape would fit
As there are a few good screens out the cheaply but not any tourglides ones that look good.
Also got front end just need nacell to fit to change twin to single headlamp same as mountainkowboys!!
When you coming up north!

Hi Steve, thanks and happy new year. I'm waiting for confirmation that I can come and collect something else, then combine the two in one trip. A bit frustrating waiting for the all clear!
As for your windscreen hopefully one of our experts will call by soon. There are several windshield brands (have to remember the right lingo!), so it is worth digging a little to see if any of them can answer your query or make one to fit yours. This thread mentions a few of them.
The windscreen I have on my batwing started life as a new HD one, which I trimmed myself. So that is another alternative worth considering, as shipping a bulky thing like a curved screen from the USA could be darned expensive. I bought a new one as my old one was pretty rough and I hadn't discovered the internet back then!

I compared my Tour glide shield with a Road glide, the width is very close, just like you mentioned, the bottom is not straight on the road glide. I traced the bottom using my TG shield and was planning on cutting the road glide shield to match, but being winter now, it may take me awhile.

yes exactly what i had in mind ! but i was not going to trim it down more make a shaped filler piece in steel polished up to fill the gap kinda of making a windscren trim of something that i dont think you can buy of the shelf.
there are some reasonable priced screens around. But the bottom is making a bit of a guess about?
thats why i wanted to see if the basic shape would fit before maybe wasting funds.
