I saw this Valk on eBay and I'm including this link because I have a question on the windshield (the owner hasn't responded yet):

https://www.ebay.com/itm/2000-Honda-Valkyrie/362603974628?hash=item546ce18fe4:g:g5UAAOSwijdcoWJf

Anyone know if that's a Honda or aftermarket shield?  And is that the tallest one available?  I have two laminar lips on top of my Memphis Shades fairing and I want to replace the whole thing, fairing and all, with a taller shield.  As far as I know, no one makes a taller shield to fit the Memphis Shades fairing.

Thanks.

don't know what that one is.
However www.rifle.com is the best shield to get. I had an oem rifle is better. different heights and widths available.

Clearview makes some pretty big windshields I think. You'd have to find some
OEM hardware, through...

I have the biggest Clearview they make.  25.5" and an extra inch or two wide, I believe.  I'm 6'5", so I wanted a tall shield.  However, it is like trying to drive a sailboat when it's windy.  Great company, though.  They knocked a big chunk off the price for a scratch that I had to search for to find.  Like was said earlier, you'll need oem hardware.
