Thumbs down Clearview Windshields--STILL IN BUSINESS??

Ordered 2 windshields for our Dyna's and was told it would take about 6/8 weeks due to custom sizing, it has now been 10 weeks and NO replies to emails and the phone defaults to an answering machine.

Any updates appreciated---oh! they charged our credit cards----we have a way to obtain a refund so that is not a worry----just the shields -needed for this season.

They were at the Arizona Bike Week last week. I bought a windshield from them. Very nice folks. Not an excuse for not responding to customers, but a lot of small businesses have no one in the shop when they are on the road. I'm heading for Laughlin in a few hours. If I see them there, I'll post when I get back.

I did business with them several years ago and they were very slow then. Other than being really slow they have a very good product and stand behind it.

I've bought two windshields from them and echo the previous comment of them being great to do business with and have a equally great product. Sorry to hear you're having problems.

I ordered one of their blems as a lot of people on here advised. Very minor scratch and those are ready to ship. Got mine in less than two weeks, including customs.
Great product.

I've bought from them before. They have a bad business model where they don't maintain any stock. Every order is a custom and built only when an order is placed. At least that was my experience. Nice windshield when I got it but it took a while.

They have the "blemished" shields in stock on thier website. I got one a couple months ago and it came in about a week. It was supposed to be blemished but i really couldn't see anything wrong with it.
