How bad do you want it? Is $200 going to hurt? Don't do it.  uglystupid2

I just bought a windshield online at ceebailey for about $90.  Received about a week later and installed myself.  Works and fits perfectly.

That's a GREAT price, even without the windshield. OEM Valkyrie windshield hardware is unavailable
as a kit anymore, and would cost a good bit over $1,000 piece by piece ordered from the parts fiche.

They are stick-on, not moulded in.  I'm pretty sure they're the same item as on the Tourer saddle bags.

Oh, I hadn't noticed...I was going from memory of pix that I'd seen. Not too many Valks around here...

rifle windshield is much better than the OEM. I had the OEM and now the widest Rifle they have. There is no comparison. Rifle design is the way to go. easier to install, lighter attachment brackets, more aerodynamic, greater protection. $400 shipped.

They are made by Cobra.  this is a link to some for sale.  The first one on this page, and yes that's about what I paid for them, not just a shell, they run H3 halogens and way brighter than the Cobra sealed beams

Chrisj cma that is a pretty sharp looking shield. Mine is a tourer also but my shield is plain. I need up putting a tool bag right where your lettering is. Also removed my badges on the tank and the saddle bags. Also removed the reflectors on the bags and instead ghosted in a Phoenix in place of it and also on my tank. I'm soon gonna be cleaning up the front end alittle and switching over to led.
