Default PIC of clearview recurve shield needed

I have a 07 road king classic & I ordered a clearview shield with recurve about 2 weeks ago, they said it would be 5 - 7 weeks out. Now that I ordered it I'm thinking the recurve might take away from the classic look. Anyone have any pictures of road king with recurve & your opinion ?

Thanks Pesscomp

I don't believe it will be that noticable.

They aren't kidding when they say 5-7 weeks out. When I ordered mine on May 6 they said 3-5 weeks and it still has not shipped. I also don't think it will be noticable.

here's a Clearview recurve on my Limited... much cleaner with none of the HD 'shields wavy edge distortion. I am a believer

btw, if you don't want to wait, call and ask if they have a "blemish" 'shield. If they do, it ships immediately. I did that and I can't find the "blemish".

He's asking for a "Road King".

I ordered a 10 1/2" blem on last Wednesday and got it last Friday. The blem was below the faring.

I don't think it will detract from the RK Classic looks. I have one for my RK Custom but I don't have a pic right now. When I ordered mine I was told about the delay and he suggested a blem for immediate shipping plus a discount. He described the blem and it is not noticeable. I have the 17" tinted. Great shield.

This thread below has a couple pics of your windshield. When you get yours post a few pics as I'm thinking about getting one.

I have a Clearview 22" re-curve on a RK and you really don't notice the change in appearance. I wouldn't order from Clearview again though. The windshield took 8 wks to ship (after being promised 2-3 wks). They don't answer their phone during the day. When they return your call in the evening, they simply say "it's shipping this week" - which I heard in week 6, 7, and finally truthfully, in week 8. I had to threaten to cancel my order before I got results. Not good.
