I am looking into getting a Longride shield for my Road King, and I can't decide between light or medium tint. I looked at all the pictures and video on their website but I'm still not sure. Could those of you who have one or the other or both please share your thoughts? My wife needs my birthday wish list ASAP, and I need to decide. Thanks.

 

As long as you are looking over it I would go with the medium tint for looks alone. If you are looking through it I would go with the light tint specifically for night time riding. Maybe give them a call and ask their opinion. But the fact remains, you should really be looking over the windshield, not through it.

 

Went with the medium tint on mine and could not be happie.rI do alot of night riding and find it is no problem

 

I went with the light tint and like how it looks. I was concerned that the medium tint would be too dark for riding after sunset.

Clear helps it disappear

 

 

I will be looking over the shield so the tint really is primarily for looks. I was leaning toward medium and I actually talked to James about it the other day. He said while they are all gray, that the medium almost has a slight bluish shade to it. I think it is very subtle and probably only in certain light from certain angles. You guys with medium tint expand on that at all?

 

I went with the medium myself. I don't see the bluish shade at all.

 

I've been running a medium tint 8 in for several years and really like it. I look over the shield, so night riding is no biggy. Their support is also great.

 

Thanks for the pics. I really do like the look of the medium.
