Thank ya'll for the help. Installed my 6.5 Klock Werks on my 2020 Street Glide. Very easy to install and works great. I'm 6 foot tall and I do have a little taller seat.
This is great to hear. I'm 6ft as well and just ordered the same visor for my 2013. I had the 9" memphis shades, but I don't like the look or the fact it's up near my line of sight.
My 2012 Ultra had a 5" Harley windshield when I bought it. Ordered a windshield from my local dealer. Turned out to be a Klock Works. Useless after 40mph. Gonna use your technique today to order a Freedom Shield.
Thanks guys. Great video. I've seen a few people say that it's bridge of the nose, but I really want the shortest visor possible, so good to know between lip and nose is the right measurement!
I bought a Freedom shield not an amazon thin piece of Chinese plastic. The Freedom shield is 30% thicker ,very substantial as compared to standard HD one so no wiggle or wobble out of it . The edges have a nice polished beveled finish and last but not least if you install with the protective plastic in place, then take your bike out for a ride and decide its not the right size you can return it for another size !! Best of all its made in the USA
I am 184 cm. and I have bought the 10"1/2. Dark smoke. It is perfect for me. I see over and, when I need to see through for some reasons just in front of the bike, it is fine. The measure I have bought allows me to have the possibility to move up or down during the ride, not being affected by the buffeting. If you are 180 cm. it is maybe better the 8"1/2.
I've found that the type of helmet makes a difference too. I'm using the crazy Al's soa helmet. That's seems to help too. Thanks for watching and commenting.
This is very true, we will make a video on those wind detectors as well. But for going over the head with wind one must get the correct windshield. Thanks for the input. Tony
When you started thinking right when you said "from the top of the lip to the bottom of the nose," and were statring to laugh. I think the saying should be, "I wouldn't hit him for everything." Friendship, nothing better. You guys do a good video.
@@HandlebarGarden yes it has helped. I recently purchased a 2009 Street Glide with 17000 miles. I got use to my old Heritage were I looked thru the windshield instead of over it. Wind buffering was my first concern and you explained how to get around it .
I wanted to give you some feedback back. I did take the plunge and purchased a Klock Works wind6. After 5 weeks it finally came in and I did install it. After a 20+ mile road test. I am very pleased with it. Thank you again for the video.
Had to get a Klock Werks windshield for my 2021 Street Glide Special which helped tremendously, but still had some buffering coming from the faring air duct, which H-D, in their infinite wisdom, took away the open/close button. Fortunately, and with my son’s help, was able to find on EBay a genuine H-D inner faring air vent duct with the open/close button. Although it’s made for the 2014-20 Batwing, it fits like a glove on my 21. Part #29200003.
Good deal, glad that worked out for you. Pain changing it all but it worked out. I don't know why they done away with the vent. My RG does and I use it regularly. Thanks for the input. Tony
I have the 8 inch klock works wind shield on my 14 streetglide . I'm a tall guy as well. Really like how to the point you guys are and how relaxed. Thankyou for your video
Thanks for the input, we have been best friends for many years. We have been through many things together. We just a couple good ol boys that try to help people any way we can. Just tell it like it is.
I like your video but just a small suggestion on your music period when I have the volume up where I can hear your talking the music comes on and it's blasting twice as loud as your voice. I would try to equalize those a little bit to make it a better experience for the listener. I do like your video though thank you for all your time and effort and information
I would love to get a higher windshield ( I have a four-inch at the moment )for my S-G however I’m only 5‘6“, I will use your technique, hopefully I can get a bit higher
Hi. What year is the bike and how tall is the driver. I have a 2024 street glide and Klockwerks as of a month ago said they did not make the windshield yet. Thanks
@@funnymonkey026 looks like all they have are the 7 inch windscreen. There are a couple of other brands that carry the 9 inch windscreen that looks like they would be good quality
@@HandlebarGarden My bad, I was being sarcastic. I'm a rider who appreciates all types of motorcycles. I keep reading comments that call the retractable windscreen on Indians gimmicky. They obviously are not.
Thanks for showing my how to measure, i will use this for sure.
Glad it was helpful! Good luck and happy riding. Tony
Thank you for that information,
Since I'm going to be looking for a street glide and I'm short,lol

I've never tried a freedom shield but I've heard good things about them. Let us know how it works out. Mike

Thanks for telling the truth about the buffeting around 80 and 90mph...some guys just can't keep it real👍👍👍👍

Tkhs for Sharing ❤️👍
It's not just the windscreen, it comes from under the fairing too.

Great video.... Good tip, Thanks guys.
Thanks and you welcome, thanks for the feedback, Tony
Great video needed to buy a windshield thxx

mashing his nose 😀

Thank you for the video.

Is it a sketch from SNL? Because you guys are funny!
Just us. More goofy moments don't get caught on video than does. Tony
I have the 8 inch klock works wind shield on my 14 streetglide . I'm a tall guy as well.
Really like how to the point you guys are and how relaxed. Thankyou for your video
Thanks for watching.
Thanks for the input, we have been best friends for many years. We have been through many things together. We just a couple good ol boys that try to help people any way we can. Just tell it like it is.
I wear a full face helmet, at higher speeds I have my visor down. Seems to reduce the head buffering considerably. Cheers 🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🇳🇿🏴😎
Never completely remove the center bolt. Only remove the outer two, and just loosen the center as per H-D service manual…
I just loosen all 3 and mine slips on and off no problems.

I'm sure it will work for you, good luck, if you need anything just let us know.
how tall are you? I'm 6'2 and still trying to find a windshield that works for me. Thanks for the video
I'm 5' 10
Where did you get the shield? Manufacturer? Model?
Hi. What year is the bike and how tall is the driver. I have a 2024 street glide and Klockwerks as of a month ago said they did not make the windshield yet. Thanks
2020, Mike is 5' 10, thanks for the comment, if you haven't done so please consider subscribing. Thanks. Tony
I have a 2020 SG and I haven't noticed any massive wind problems at any speed.
That's really good. Thanks for watching
I agree I have a 2021 Street Glide and the stock windshield sucks. I bought one off of Amazon and its better than the Harley Davidson go figure..
I wish that I would have gotten the smoked instead of the black windshield other than that it has worked out good for me
@@HandlebarGarden yea you can forget riding after dark with that thing. Heck even a cloudy day you’ll be driving blind.
Those are cool looking bars! What brand and how tall are the handlebar ?
They are 16 inch bars. Not sure what brand they were put on the bike by the dealership before I got it
Maybe I missed it, but what windshield did you go with?
I went with the autovic 9.3 inch black wave that I got from Amazon. Thanks for watching
♥️
Where did you get the 9” shield and 7” shield?
The 7 was on the bike when I got it. The 9 was ordered for Amazon.
Buffeting not buffering, you’re not a streaming device.
No but we are hillbillys
Lucky you didn't strip the bolts out cranking down on them like that....looked like you were tightening lug nuts. lol
lol Torque to spec
What brand windshield is on the bike and what is the height? Is it Klock Werks?
Autovic 9.3 black wave. I ordered from Amazon. Thanks for watching
I can’t find it on Amazon. Can you post a link?
@@funnymonkey026 looks like all they have are the 7 inch windscreen. There are a couple of other brands that carry the 9 inch windscreen that looks like they would be good quality
Why don't just press the button and raise the electric windshield?
I wish it was that easy but Harley doesn't have electric windshield
@@HandlebarGarden My bad, I was being sarcastic. I'm a rider who appreciates all types of motorcycles. I keep reading comments that call the retractable windscreen on Indians gimmicky. They obviously are not.
You guys would be some cool dudes to ride with but making videos not so much. lol lol
7+2=9
