I just ordered 2 a 7 inch dark tint, and a 9 inch light smoke, dont have my bike yet but from the test rides I know the stock wont work. Will report when I have a 1000 miles on the new 9 inch, the 7 is just to look cool. I asked them to cut teh Harley slots in the order that I placed an hour ago and they just called me to discuss, they dont like to do it because some past customers over torqued and complained, they will do it but nit guarentee against staring the slotted holes. I suspect with their servce level I pains them to get complaints, great people, have not tested the sheild yet but their responsiveness is amazing. I think I will be happy.

Slightly OT
On your GPS mount...did you use the car ball mount that came with the unit and if so do you have any issued with vibration causing it to come loose? I am hesitant about mounting my Nuvi 200 using the mounting bracket that came with it. Also did you hard wire it or do you just run it off the internal battery.
I like that windshield and will be looking into one in the near future!
Thanks

I got my 10" Half Moon in the Marr-Resistant, Lite Tint. It's a quality product and was shipped quickly and flawlessly. Great people to do biz with. Give them a call or email and tell them Hotshot from Tupelo sent you.
Well worth the money.
Now to get the time to get it installed. I'll give a ride report after that. If it's half as good as I've heard, I'll be happy.

Finally got over this pneumonia and felt good enough to get my new windshield installed.
It's awesome, easy to install, looks great and I'm a happy camper. I haven't taken a ride yet, but tomorrow will be the test.
I will also take a few photos and post them.
I've spent money on my bike that I deemed "well spent", that was with the RJ Classics Heat Shields and now with this windshield..... at least that's the "before the ride" opinion.
More to post after tomorrow.

Just got back from about a 200 mile ride in the wind.... wind coming up from the Gulf and Hurricane Ike..... It was a tough test for the new windshield, but it passed with flying colors. Probably the most awesome thing is how much better I can hear the stereo speakers now ! WOW ! This is the 10" Half Moon Windshield in the Lite Tint, Marr-Resistant Lexan. You will also notice RJ Originals Mid-Frame Heat Deflectors on the bike, another winner of money well spent !
I like it !
Ok folks, here are the photos:
