Cee Bailey's 14" Dark Windshield@ $300...NO THANKS!
« on: February 09, 2009, 04:16:23 PM »

Been avidly following development of the Cee Bailey SERG windshield.  Called to order one this am and the guy says the 14" dark is $300 and mumbled something about $250 or such for the light tinted...I couldn't hear very well after the $300.  I asked about doing a "Group Buy" for the CVO Owner's Group and he said he doesn't do "Group Buys".  I thanked him POLITELY and told him that I was no longer interested and bid him farewell.  Can you believe that :soapbox: :nixweiss:

Joe did tell us that the new and improved SERG windshield was going to cost more, and that sounds like what he was speaking of. the ones that ordered the original got a deal because of the error made. but going forward Mas Dinero.

Wow, I just got off the phone with a guy a CEE Bailey.  I was told 275 for the dark 14".  That is 20 more than the sheet that was posted earlier.  Then I see this thread. 

I think I still want it from what I read.  I can not however figure out if the shield the guys here have been testing are the Euro or the Dome.  Thats why I logged on to check and see if I could figure that out.

I was told they had 20 orders.

Are people getting the Dome shape or the Euro shape?

But think about :
 If you try 2 or three other shield which do not satisfie you then it won`t get cheaper . This CEE TRSSC should fit perfect , i guess .

So, what is the price? I called last week and was told "...about $250..." Then we have quotes of $270 and $300 given to people here. What's the straight story?

And no group buy?

I've been watching the Cee Bailey's discussion here with great interest. My Grey Ghost will be here in the next couple of weeks. I'm not crazy about the stock windshield. I've got an 8" KW on my '07 FLTR, but don't think KW is the way to go after what I've heard here. However, that may be where I end up... or maybe CV... Frankly, I'm not interested in a $300 windshield. That's just crazy, if you ask me.

Rick, I tried several high dollar shields and was less then satisfied, I wound up with a stock takeoff from an 09 standard Roadglide,it fits fine using the CVO Seal, It cost me $36.00 on E-bay and the look and wind protection suit me well.

While I agree the price is on the very high side.  It looks to be the best shield out there as of this time.

I am still trying to figure out for sure if all the pictures I am seeing on this site are the dome version.  That is what it looks like, but I sure do not want to make a $300 mistake

If we cared about cost, we wouldn't be here. It's all about form and function. CB has all the form. the function is still being tested, but the returns so far are good.

The two shields I tested were the 14" dark tint round top and the Lt. tint 15" round top I guess they could  be called a dome top but these were for 09 SERG only and will not fit older SERGs or stock RGs. I was told that the flat top Euro was droped from the 09 SERG line up as it looked bad on the bike.  Doc

Just MHO I do beleive these shields to be better than anything I have tryed before, I have nothing to gain if they sell or not. Put on over 400 miles with the 14" Dark Tint and it will never come off.  Doc

Doc,

I beg to differ, these shields will fit the standard FLT fairings.  All you have to do is order the seal for the wind deflector that came on the 09 SERG.  That same wind deflector is advertised in the HD catalog as fitting all other Felts as well.  The first shield you got from them was indeed a bad fit but with slotting of the center hole it would have dropped down in place better than you show it in the first thread.  CB is flat WRONG (Joe) when they say the fairings are different. 

Tell me, you got your shields for free right?  For testing them and reporting back the results?  Would you pay out $300+shipping for an unknown shield?

I mean no disrespect and I've said before that I appreciate all the work you and others poured into this to make this happen and I truly hope these CB shields are the answer to our buffeting woes. 

That being said, it really PI$$ES me off that considering all the help Cee Bailey got from people on this forum and in the CVO Owner's Group that they won't do a group buy.

Howdy Chief, sorry for the  :jack:

Thanks for your service... just made Chief myself (won't pin on until Oct) and am headed to the CLC next month. Plan on following in your footsteps & doing 30... gotta pay for my bike somehow (and I still don't know what I want to do when I grow up anyway... lol)
