Oh no, Not QC issues. good grief, hope they work it out for you. let us know

[HDDOCFL]

Got mine last Thursday, mounted it on the bike, twice. When sitting on the bike, the left side is slightly higher than the right. Anybody else have this issue? Almost like it was put in the mold a little off. Gonna call them Monday to advise.

 That shield should have never been sent out, Call and talk to Joe he will fix you up ASAP.  The test shields I recieved had the same problem, the new ones do not. You may have recieved the wrong shield.  Doc

Oh Boy, Mines in Route im already worried they shipped the wrong size now this, When I placed my Order there were a bunch ahead of me and they were trying to run at least 12 a day, Poor Joe is trying to get this project off the ground with apparently little assistance, Im sure any problems will be addressed.

Why would you be worried they are shipping the wrong size ?   Thank`s

JP, I was sent an E-Mail invoice when the Shield was shipped, the invoice showed that a 13in was shipped instead of the 14 in I ordered. Hopefully its a typo.

[HDDOCFL]

Call Cee Bailys and find out.  Doc

[dartman]

Doc, Not so simple,I called last Friday,  im waiting for a call back from Joe, if he is unavailable there is very little support when it comes to these limited edition shields, I talked to Sales, Shipping etc. He was on an extended weekend I will probably have it in hand before he is able to get back to me.

well I was happy to see a big box on my front porch today,

[FLSTFI Dave]

Mine arrived Saturday the 21st at 4:55 pm.  I got it put on, but not chance to ride.  Looks good, and went on pretty easy.

Hopefully I will get to ride this coming Saturday to see how it works.

I do know the factory pice of plastic is worthless, especially when its 30 degrees out.

I can identify. I rode for a couple of days with the factory shield. UGH! Switchd to my 8" KW, but it's not much better. I'm ready for my CB 14" dark tint to get here. Joe said sometime this week it would ship.

Come on, CB!

[Resbiker]

Oh please dont tell me this, son of a b. I took the trim of last night, I dont see any gap in the KW that i hear about. But to not be able to use the HD trim is BS. Plus I still don't have my CB shield yet was told it was shipping the beginning of last week.

I thought the chrome trim option fits over the top of the windshield over the mounting holes.  No?  I just got my SERG, still at dealer waiting for options, and this was ordered too.  I haven't ordered the CB yet, but when I called, one of their reps said he thought some people were making it fit.  ??

I thought the chrome trim option fit over the top of the fairing.  No?  I just got my SERG, still at dealer waiting for options, and this was ordered too.  But I haven't ordered the CB yet.

Let me preface this by saying that I have not tried to install the windshield trim on a 2009 SERG. I think I understand why it won't fit, though.

The rubber windshield seal for the stock SERG windshield sits between the windshield and the fairing, i.e., the windshield mounting screws go through the windshield and the rubber sealb. The stock windshield has the mounting holes indented (frenched in?) and the material thickens around the screw holes (to help prevent cracking?). The rubber seal has hole larger enough to allow the raised around around the screw hole on the back of the winshield to sit down into the seal.

Stock Road Glide windshields -- and any windshield that assumes the stock seal such as the KW -- has the screw holes flush with the windshield surface. When you try to mount this type of windshield using the 09 SERG seal, the screws aren't long enough. So, you have to mount the windshield without the stock seal giving up the good seal that it create as well as having minimal protection for the painted fairing surface beneath the windwhield.

The CB windshield for the FLTRSE3 has been designed to mount using the stock rubber mounts. I don't know if the screw holes in the windshield are flush or indented. If they are flush, then CB must be providing longer screws to mount with the stock hardware.

I think that others have mentioned here that hte CB windwhield comes with a set of new mounting hardware, but uses the stock seal. I am still waiting on my CB, so I don't know what is included in that hardware. Perhaps someone who has their CB shield can chime in here.

So, this is why windshields that assume the stock (non-CVO) Road Glide mounting hardware and seal don't fit so well on the SERG3. Some have also said that there is a slight difference in the shape of the fairing where the windshield mounts, but I have not yet been able to verify that.

CB does provide new longer screws.

CB uses the stock SERG rubber gasket and well nuts.  The provide two washer that go behind heach well nut so it will not fall into the fairing.  Then they provide another nilon washer that goes between the shield and well nut.  For the new mounting screws you use the washers that came with the factory mounting screws.

It takes 30 minutes to do the complete install, if you take your time, keep going back to the instructions to make sure your doing it right and being carefull not to scratch anything.  You also need a sip of the beer every now and then while doing it.

It really was a easy install.  It also fits like stock.  I can not say how it works as I have not had a chance to ride it with it yet.  I left for Houston right after putting it on the bike.
