Default Best Windshield for the $$?

I'm shopping for a new windshield for my 04 FLHTPI. I'm pretty sure I want to go with the polycarbonate (Lexan) windshield in clear and 10". There doesn't seem to be any shortage for vendors for this product. What are your experiences and recommendations? I like the moco's shields but, as usual, they are overpriced. Opinions, please.

Hard to beat their prices and delivery.

I have the 10" dark smoke on my bike.

Clearview here..... +1 on their blems. If I wasn't told exactly where the blem was I probably would never have noticed it.

Thanks for the input. I ordered a 10" clear from Fastaire. I'll let you know how it works out. This forum rocks.

The windshield you perchased is made out of impact resistant , poly-resin acrylic not polycarbonate (Lexan). Difference in strength. Too each there own but safety first.

Until you spend it again in 2 years when you need another because that one is so scratched up from normal use.
