Default Long Ride Shield for Road King

NO LONGER AVAILABLE.

Less than a month ago I bought an 18" Tinted LRS for my 2013 Road King. Below is a photo of it on my bike. The shield is too short for me so I'm selling it to purchase a taller shield. I will tell you that they claim it's an 18" but in fact from the headlight cutout to the top of the shield it measures 17.25". This shield is in like new condition. I took it off and I can't see a scratch. If there are any they are extremely small. New, even with their 20% discount, with shipping this shield would cost you approx. $120. I'll take $95 shipped any where in the lower 48.

Just picked the bike up Friday. Previous owner included a stock height shield. Let me see where that one hits so I can see if the 18" would work for me.

So at 5' 10" how much over the shield were you looking. Where would a horizontal line from the top hit you in the face????

I have taken the shield off and replaced it with the stock shield so I can't be exact but I would guess at about my mouth. I look over it by a fair amount. But at 5" 10" I probably have a longer torso than others my height with a 30" inseam.

I may make you an offer after I get a chance to ride with the stock height shield. Been raining for the last few days and supposed for the next two. How is looking through it at night??? I had a light tint on my RG but no experience with one on a RK where you look through more of the shield.

It's the light tint so I never found looking through it a problem. But then I rarely ride at night. Too many deer.

If you are interested please PM me your address so I can get an idea of the shipping cost. That may determine if I'd take less. It's not the weight of the box but the size that they (UPS, FedEx, USPS) get you on. I have the original box.
