Yes there are other options if you scroll or search the articles here there are many that have gone different routes.

To do a search just go to the 1800 home page and type in windshield on the upper right hand search bar

This is also one other option

ok, after 6 months and a few dollars here is what I have come up with.  (1)  I like the Gustafson "european flip" windshied, BUT, the hardware is flimsy and the shield moves and needs readjusting.  (2) Now the Honda hardware for the tall windshield is bullet proof!  Get the Gustafson 16 x 22 Euroflip (or size of your choice) with NO hardware or drilling. 

Get the hardware  for the Honda tall windshield.  Line up the four mounting holes on the Honda bracket, and drill the Gustafson windshield.  MOunt windshiel --- PERFECT!!!!!!!

I would have a caveat with that one. I did this and all of the Gustafson stuff went in the bin. The vibration and noise was appalling. Here is my take on it here...

Now the bullet point here is not that you are wrong, after all it is perfect for you. The point is that it may not be the same for someone else. I found that out a costly way so just wanted to give a caution to the op.

Gustafsson will drill it for honda oem mounts (and sell you the mounts too) so you really didn't need to go to any extra work.
