It’s been about 1 month and almost 1,000 miles and I can say your windshield has lived up to the claims. I read almost every review before purchase which is what made me choose your product. Couldn’t have made a better choice. The 8 inch shield I went to from a factory 6 inch is night and day different. No more wind buffeting or blowing around my glasses or my passengers. The wider touring width is also a plus, reducing the wind noise on long rides makes it more enjoyable to put the miles on. Pushes the rain and bugs up and away. Performs well in all weather conditions I’ve encountered so far. Great fit and finish as well. The polished edge is a nice touch compared to the dull HD one. Overall, a great shield I will and have recommended to fellow riders. Thank you also for the great communication before the sale. Keep up the good work!

Best everyday shield ever. I have ridden a couple of thousand Km’s around Queensland, Australia since purchasing this shield.  It has replaced all my previous shields and I no longer swap them out for urban or long-distance riding. Unlike the various ‘wind cutter/splitter’ types I have used previously; this shield has no distortion of view and achieves all its claims about turbulence. I use the 6″ Mid-grey tint on my 2015 FLHX-S.  No installation issues, easy to use, and clean. Get one.

The best upgrade to my bike yet!!! I recently read about Freedom Shields on a forum, and decided to give them a try.  Based on my height (5’11”), inseam (32”), and being comfortable with my stock shield height; John suggested I try a 9” shield on my 2018 Ultra Limited.  I ordered the touring width with a dark grey tint. When I first opened the box and saw how well this shield was built, I told my wife that I didn’t care if I had to look around the shield; I want this shield on my bike!  The thickness, the finished edges and the clarity were excellent! I decided to leave the protective coating on and go for a quick test ride.  I only drove to the end of my street (about ¼ mile) and I knew this was the shield for me!  I turned around at the stop sign and came home to remove the protective film.  The bike rides and handles great with this shield.  At high speeds on the interstate, it feels like the front of the bike is more planted.  Also, the stereo doesn’t have to be turned up because there isn’t as much wind noise.

I wanted to say thank-you again for a Beautiful Freedom Windshield. Please see attached pictures of my 05 FLHTCI with your Freedom Shield. I must say I have been riding since 1965 & this is by far the BEST WINDSHIELD I have ever had on a Harley. Thanks Again & please keep up your great work and customer service.

After purchasing a Street Glide, it only took a few miles to realize that I could not live with the stock windshield and that it needed to be replaced with something taller.   At the Harley dealer, I tried the 10” light smoke Wind Splitter demo shield. It did a good job with air deflection.  But even though I was looking over the windshield, my peripheral vision was seeing a lot of distortion, especially with the highway lines.  It was a deal breaker for me. After doing much research and reading windshield recommendations on several forums, I ordered the light gray 8” recurve Freedom Shield.  In just a few days the windshield arrived.  I was immediately impressed with its quality and installation was simple.  It didn’t take long to realize this was a keeper.  The design of the windshield sends the air over my head, eliminating the head buffeting that I had experienced with the stock shield.  And unlike the Wind Splitter, this windshield has virtually no distortion.  To control the air coming up from around the tank, I installed a set of HD fork-mount wind deflectors.  Installing the Freedom Shield and the wind deflectors has turned my Street Glide into a sweet ride.  I highly recommend Freedom Shields.

I just wanted to let you know that I received my windshield (wide touring light tint 10″) yesterday. I must say that the fit and finish of this shield is impeccable. The quality is unmatched by anyone. I would know, I’ve tried them all. Put close to 100 miles on yesterday. Looking over the shield I can see clearly down the road with no buffering at all. Looking through the shield there is no distortion. Needless to say, the protective plastic was taken off immediately upon my return home. Thanks again for a fantastic product and all of your (and the staff) help. Your customer service concerning my questions and responding to my emails is greatly appreciated. That’s something that you don’t see much of these days. Keep up the good work and fantastic product.

I received my windshield for my 2018 Tri-Glide, I went with a 11″ touring width in clear, and all I can say is Holy Cow my bike feels like I can ride it for days on end now. No more buffeting, I can hear my stereo and my head is no longer getting sucked off my shoulders by my helmet. My batwing fairing now feels like I always thought it should. Thank you for a great product.

Review By: Henry – Great Neck, NY

I added a new seat to my 2019 Limited Low and because of the seat I needed a taller windshield. I had a 9 day Arkansas trip planned and wanted the new windshield for the trip. Two weeks before the trip UPS said the windshield was delivered but there was no windshield to be found. I called John and the team at Freedom shield and explained the situation and without hesitation they immediately rushed me a new windshield and told me we could deal with the missing windshield after I returned from my trip. I was able to enjoy my Arkansas trip with my new windshield which by the way exceeded my expectations but even more impressive was the awesome customer service. John and the team cared more about making sure I had my windshield in time for my trip than they did about the missing windshield. The only thing better than a great product is great customer service and John’s team exceeded expectations in both areas. Thank you John for making sure I had an awesome trip because of your great product and impressive customer service I will be a lifelong customer.
