Can anyone tell me if OEM Honda windshields for a 99 F6 Standard are still available anywhere in North America, and if not, the closest aftermarket supplier? Also, does anyone out there have any feedback on Heritage Leather bags from Canada.....are they worth the coin?

Thanks!

I had Heritage leather saddle bags on my '98 standard for over 25k miles.  Saw all kinds of weather and looked great.  The tops were beginning to loose some of their original shape, after 7 years but it was nothing that couldn't be easily remedied. 

Always got compliments on them.  It seemed to me that the original Honda soft bags always wore in kinda ugly in comparison.  Here's a coupld of shots when I sold the bike,

There is at least one original Honda windshield on evil bay right now.  Just search "Valkyrie", and go thru the pages.  It is said to be "like new".  That will then get you the hardware also.  So, then you can get a Clearview windshield down the road, if you need a new one again.

Here is a link to HDL that sells the OEM windshield. I got mine last August and as far as I know they are still readily available  8)
