Wide glide vs super glide

I have the QD windshield on my Sporty and I'm not sure what you mean. From my experience riding with and without it, I know it makes a difference. I can't compare it to the Memphis Shades setup or anyone else's, but I can't say the Harley branded QD windshield is anywhere near useless. Please explain.

Bear in mind that for 2013, H-D only offers the FXDC (not the FXD), so another option to consider is the Street Bob, which offers an upgrade to the 103 for pretty cheap if you build it on-line.

Having owned a Dyna Lowrider, when they were still available, I can attest to the good handling of a Super Glide. Tweak the suspension (Progressive front & rear) and it becomes an even better ride.

Love my RoadGlide Ultra but sure miss my WideGlide. It was light enough you could horse it around.

Memphis Shades actually makes replacement plastic for the HD windshields. They also make shorter and taller than stock replacements. I'm 5'9".

I believe that that would probably help a lot. But I just went to the HD wesite and can't find a touring windshield that will fit the Wideglide. Mine was the compact and I hated it. I am now useing the MS Batwing so no longer need a QD, thanks.
