I will get this as well when it becomes available for my 11 Convertible but don't you also have to add the brackets, gaskets and plates for the GPS to mount on the windshield? 

Yes, you will need those also - IF you want them.

I was at the NHRA Nationals yesterday
I seen a Harley dealer  there showing Bikes
I told him its sad how Harley is not reacting to the wind buffiting on the cvo convertible
he said he sold 4 units with no complaints
I told him  he didn't have any cvo covertibles because if he did they be coplaining of it
Its said how they will not admit there wrong
I also have a bid dog coyote and I still like the bike
It,s still better than the harley and they went out of business
go figure

I can certainly sympathise with you on that dealer saying nobody is complaining.  Seems to be a trend nowadays that nobody.....that is read "nobody"...........seems to have the integrity to admit their product has some shortcomings.  they just deny that anybody has any problems with whatever they are selling.  It is sad.  guess the bottom line will determine their outcome.  We are still waiting I guess on whether Harley will sell us '10 and '11 owners the new windshield/air diverters, etc.  as soon as someone scores, let us all know, eh????     Pork.

I ripped that dealer at the track
Four units with no coplaints
take your ear plugs out of your head
Then he says we are different at our dealership
ya
Tha't the best Harley won't sell us something at list to correct their mistake
I still believe harley has a safety issuse with that wind moving you glasses like that
And why would you want to have a bike that everyone hates the wind buffeting because your to lazy to test before you release to public
This is my last harley
I had it
Harley better wake up and quit worring about their street glide line only
once the babby boombers are gone no young guys will buy them
If Indian gets going with the victory ownership that won't help
Wake up Harley you can't bone everyone in this economy
Fix your mistakes or customers will move on

You'll never see me move on.  I've owned Harley's since I was sixteen.  I guess I'm old school.  I wouldn't even consider owning another brand.

I have saddlebag guards on my 2010 Convertible.  I purchased the HD Softail saddlebag guards but the holes did not match up. So I took them to Mitch, a customer bike builder and welder, here in Colorado.  He did a beautiful job.  I will send pictures later today or tomorrow.

cannot see what all the grizzling is about, love my small screen, i do not want to look through a screen when i ride, i see over the top of this and i am only 5, 6'.
i came from a softail custom to this bike, so i rode and still ride it without any screen, in fact in australia i think more harley riders ride without a screen than with one.

I enjoy riding without any windshield but when it gets evening time around here we need bug protection and occasionally rain protection. I cannot stand all the buffeting in the ears from the stock inadequate screen and fairing not to mention the wind moving your head to and fro. And, it's worst for the BSR! It's right on the edge of being good and bad unfortunately it's on the side of BAD.

I also, actually, like the look of the newer version as well as it performing far better. I never really did like the look of the stock one it just looks a little too small for the bike. The new version looks like it "belongs" on the bike.

I'm 6'0" tall and my head bobs around like crazy.  I also look over the top.  I can't ride with the stock screen.  I'd rather ride with no screen than that one.
