I went to the dealer today to ask about a windshield for when I take 3 to 4 hundred mile rides in a day.  The tach gets in the way of any that Harley makes and the guy said he didn't believe Harley would be making any to fit the SEfatboy.  Any ideas where I may find?

[Road_Hog]

As a last resort, If you cannot find one or HD decides not to take care of you guys with the fatboys'- The guys on the Dyna threads came up with a nice way to get around the front end on theirs by cutting a standard windshield to fit around the headlight cover and putting some edging around the cut out portions. Check em' out!  Looks Great Guys!  

Don't know if it would work for you or not  [smiley=nixweiss.gif], since I unfortunately havn't seen the CVO Fatboy in person....

Has anyone made the modification on their windshield to have it fit the FLSTFSE with the tach?

Reo, I was going to put a Windvest on the bike but they did not have a bracket to fit it.  They may now.  I instead decided to go with 58278-95 detachable windshield low profile.  I ordered a couple of days ago from all of our friend Chicago Harley. The dealer I discovered did not know what he was talking about locally!

After getting a chance to make some long high speed expressway runs I found there seems to be an updraft problem with using the detachable windshield. I found a fix by using the chrome wind deflector. http://www.harley-davidson.com/gma/gma_product.jsp?PRODUCT%3C%3Eprd_id=845524441849437&FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=2534374302289727&bmUID=1113966868402&bmLocale=en_US


Not a good pic but here is what they look like installed.

Good Idea Reo,
do those deflectors attach to the windshield or to the forks? are they removed with the windshield?
i was thinkin on ordering the smoked low profile  replacement windshield...it runs about 150 bucks..I'm beginning to feel like the king size windshield is exactly what it is,,,
 KINGSIZE. i figure  i could interchange between the two on the existing braket.  perhaps i'll add that  deflector set also ,it Looks great!!  more chrome ,more chrome  yea!  [smiley=laugh.gif]

REO
Can you help me out?  I need the p/n's for the windshield (do you know if a low profile is available?).  I am thinking of p/n#58278-95?    & the aux lite kit (how did you wire for new lamps?)

Thanks
Mike

I used the nostalgic windshield 57140-05, I hate the look of the windshield so I probably wont get a short one but for long rides I like the looks of this one better than 58278-95. As far as wiring I added two new circuits in my fuse box, one for the led lights and one for the aux lights. I didnt like the idea of having the aux lights on the low beam circuit. for one they stay on with the high beams and if I loose a fuse on the headlights I have aux lights and vice-versa.

I want to talk to you about how you did the aux lights next week. Maybe over a beer or even two...

Can't handle them grown up drinks anymore but while I'm having my sody-pop I'm sure we will have much to discuss.

Sounds good to me...
