OIf it is a Woody's like mine ANY shield that will fit a late model HD will fit it  so that means the options are endless. Personally I like the recurved Long Ride Shield. http://www.longrideshields.com |

No they don't have vents with the recurve shield it doesn't need to be as tall because it pushes the air up and over. I don't have one on my VALK but had a 7" on my street glide and wind went over the top of my head I am 6'2". I will be getting one for the valk soon.

I have several of the Aero shields from Fast Aire. Back when I ordered my Woody's fairing from Glenn, he had recommended them. http://www.fastaire.com/I'm 6'2" and use a 10" with re-curve during the colder months and usually use a 7" in the warm months. Bighead already provided a link to the other company that sells shields with a re-curve. I recommend whatever size shield that you need, but with the re-curve. It's like adding an extra 2" to your shield. However, ANY standard three hole Harley shield will work on your Woodys fairing. You have a zillion choices out there. |

Have you considered an upper windshield extension? I looked at these--they'll fit a Valk--but decided didn't want to drill my windshield (or spend the $). I think you can just clamp them on but not sure. Anyway, I contacted the guy and he's willing to interact about fit and function on your big cruiser. http://www.twistedthrottle.com/mra-x-creen-add-on-variable-windscreen-spoiler-blade-bolt-on?utm_source=googlepepla&utm_medium=adwords&gclid=CJjzntTIqMQCFQeUfgodKjQAJQ |

I have recently purchased a Cee Bailey's Super Step Contour windshield for mine. I have not used it yet but have read many positive reviews about it. http://www.ceebaileys.com/harley/flhtssc_ws.html |

That screen will NOT fit an IS. Only a HD style batwing. |

Don't mean to highjack the post but, does anyone make a re-curve windshield for the Interstate? I have 2 different Cee Baileys sheilds and like them both. Have searched around and have not found anyone with a recurve.

Maybe. Grumpy (Bill G. in FL) got a Clearview tall GT for Interstate (which has a curve, but not radical), and then had them cut it down some (as it would be over most of our heads as is). There was still come curve left in it, but not as much as you see in the super curvy bat wing aftermarket shields. It was also like 2 1/2" wider on each side than stock. He posted some pics a long time back. I had thought to try and get one like it myself when I decide to get new shields for my IS. Maybe Bill will chime in. Or you could call Clearview and talk to them. |

I settled on a 13" ultra elite from long ride shields. I like to ride along the waters edges around the bat of green bay so there a lot of bug hatches through out the year. So that's why I got the poly I think it should be a little more scratch resistant and hopefully a little easier to clean  and there 30%off right now !! |
