Halfmoon Wings??
I'm searching for a new windshield to put on my Street Glide. I'm 6ft so I'm guessing that an 8 inch shield will fit the bill. For a stock like replacement, I like the look fo the Cee Baileys shields.
Has anyone had any experience with a Halfmoon Wings shield? They look nice, just wondering if anyone can share their experience with this shield. http://www.customflhtwindshields.net/

J.B.

I just put the 8" dark on my Street Glide a couple of days ago. The fit is perfect, but it didn't improve the rider wind protection at all. It does seem to greatly improve the wind protection for a passenger, but since I never carry anyone, I'm going back to the regular style and shape shields. You or anyone else interested can P.M. me for a half priced almost new windshield.

I have the lightly smoked, 10" flat-top with wings. Nice fit and looks. Makes the bike stand out a little bit. Extra width helps with hearing the radio also.I am also 6' and if I slump, the 10" is slightly too high. Probably will get the clear 9" next time. I think 8" might be too low.

RE: Halfmoon Wings??
I agree....they look great BUT they don't hold up. I had 4 of them brake at the added wing, great company repaced them at N/C each time, but they obviously have a design flaw. Got tired of changing them and replaced with a conventional shield. The wind causes the wings to much fatague with nothing supporting them on back side.[:'(]Don't buy unless you like constantly changing your windshield.
