Windshields for 08 Fatbob

Hi!! First time post here, So.... need help finding a cool aftermarket windshield for a 08 Fatbob!! (FXDF) The one Harley has is OK, but it just doesn't do it for me.... just seems like it doesn't fit the style of the bike! If ya have any ideas on what to look at......send them my way. THANKS!!

I have the Harley quick detach on my 06 FXDI3500 and really like the mounting system but the shield was too low for me, my solution was to buy a replacement plastic from Clearview it is 2 inchis taller and 2 inches wider, uses the same hardware and has a recurve on the top to give better protection from the wind. I ordered mine in smoke and bought lower wind deflectors from Memphis Shades in solar, it looks great and if I want them off it takes only a minute or two and the forks are clean. Tom

dcinpa is an unknown quantity at this point
That's because windshields belong on geezerglides, not Fat Bobs...

Be the wind, brother!

Steeltoe
National Cycles may have something.
They usually carry a lot of HD shields.

I just put the quick detachable harley brand shield on my Fat Bob and love the thing!

Why? It's geezeree but all Harley and works. Its built with quality pieces and looks like a Harley shield instead of some foreign make.

I'd run with that one and when you want to be free of it just pop off the four snap clips made of billet aluminum.
