I have a 2012 street glide with the stock 4 inch windshield on it. I got a piece of cardboard. In this case it was a cereal box and I added 3 1/2 inches to the heights of my windshield and taped the serial box to the windshield. Yes it looks stupid. But I rode with it being 3 1/2 inches taller and I could not see through the cereal box and it cut down the wind Dramatically. Also it gave me the feeling of not being able to see through the shield. And it worked great

Picked up a 2019 FLTRU a few weeks ago. The stock 15 inch oe windshield came off immediately. I currently have the 14 inch Klock Werks Sport Flare on demo. I’m definitely going to order one for my own.

Good vid Steven, nice and easy way of determining windshield height. But it is highly recommended that you look OVER your windshield as opposed to looking through. Especially like the " six pack and a buddy" suggestion.

Nice...congrats on the new sled!! Yeah the hd wind screens leave some to be desired...of course they sell a windsplitter "upgrade" so im sure that had something to do with it. lol You will love the klock werks man....one of the best things I done to the bike outside of getting rid of the stock suspension. If I had to buy another again I would buy another Klock werks for sure!

They make a 17 and a 20...depending on how you want it..look over it (recommended) or through it..it sits pretty much right on top of your headlight so measure up from there...itll take 2 people to get an accurate measurement. but the RK flare doesnt have much of a swoop to it...so the 17 or 20 should be pretty much 17 or 20 up from the headlight

You have to follow the instruction here to measure. I cannot guess what size you may need because I dont know your riding style...you could be slouched or sitting straight up and down...height doesnt matter much on any windshield...you have to get in your riding position and then measure straight out to see the size of windshield you need.
