I have the Harley compact detachable windshield and I have since relocated signals to the forks also. If you got the harley relocation kit the compact will fit, anything else I guess I don't know about, so if you want to buy one let me know, I have mine for sale, I decided I enjoy eating bugs!!!

I sometimes use a windshield on long runs during the summer, when the bugs are really thick, and during the colder winter months.

I really like the new quick detachable system that replaces the older setup involving the semi-permanent installation of rubber bushings and hairpin type springs which held the shield in place and offered detachability.

The new system uses four die cast steel clamps which have a camming over-center action that securely locks the shield onto the fork tubes between the triple clamps, and is absolutely rock solid.

When the windshield is removed from my WideGlide (which takes only a couple of seconds) there is no 'mounting hardware' left behind on the bike...

If you plan on attaching a windshield on any Harley, want something that goes on and off instantly and is rock solid (without leaving and 'mounting hardware behind on the bike), you should check out the newer cam system.

Here is a not so good picture;
