What height of windshield on Black Ultra
« on: May 16, 2010, 07:58:00 PM »

Just picked up my ultra on Sat.  I'm 6'2" and the short windshield does not stop enough air for me.  My question is I hate to buy the wrong height so does anyone have any suggestions.  I like the looks of the low profile so I don't want go any higher than necessary..

Lot's of choices on the market, I have been very happy with Clearview shields. The re-curve at the top allows you to go with a shorter shield if styling is important to you.Yet it gives good protection. That being said I choose my shields for practicality and want the wind/rain/dirt/bug protection that a larger shield offers. You can custom order any size and various tints from Clearview.
I have a Clearview on my 2006 FLHTCUSE and on my 2009 FLTRSE3 and love them both for great quality and no visual distortion. Customer service is great too.

I have a 9-1/2 re-curve from Clearview and love it too!  Great company to do business with as well.

Word of caution though... If you want a dark tint go with the "dark grey" they offer as the "smoked" is barely darker than the clear shields.

You won't be disappointed with a Clearview.
