This is definitely a (tall) passenger friendly windshield!

I ordered the 18″ with the hope it would be tall enough to make the ride experience more enjoyable for my wife as the passenger and you did it! I wanted to get some good rides in with it before getting back to you and the delay with replacing the darn speaker pods (2 of the 4 windshield mounting bolts were cross threaded and couldn’t get them out) made it take a bit longer.  The stock and follow on klockwerks windshields gave her nothing but a face full of wind & buffeting. As she is also 6′ tall, I thought it might be impossible to find a windshield tall enough to improve the ride for her. At your recommendation I went with the 18″ Touring and in a light grey tint as I would be looking through it. I was surprised at the quality and durability taking it out of the box, this is a windshield! It was a little interesting to look through the shield vs over it at first, but it works great for me, and the tint is perfect. There is minimal to zero distortion while looking through it which I am very thankful for. As I ride year-round in TN, I am finally looking forward to wintertime riding with the difference this shield makes. After replacing those speaker pods, I took my wife out & about on the backroads up to 60 mph and she loved it! She said it was the most pleasant ride she has had and really appreciates it. We went out and got a highway ride in shortly after and still at those speeds your shield made all the difference! This is definitely a (tall) passenger friendly windshield! Thank you so much and so glad I chose Freedom Shields. I still want to order a shorter shield just for me when I get the chance in the future.  Bike: 2017 Harley Road Glide Ultra

It’s easy to see why Freedom Shields are by far the BEST!

I wanted to reach out and thank you and your team for our new shield. My Wife and I just finished our 1000+ mi. trip to the Adirondack on our “21” Ultra.  The 8” touring model, light grey tint was outstanding. My Wife (5’8”) said the shield was as good if not better than the 10” stock. No buffering at all, even at high speeds. The touring model also took some wind off her shoulders. Additionally, the speakers even sounded clearer and there was very limited resistance passing those 18 wheelers.  At 5’11’’ I was able to see over the 8” by a couple of inches and the light grey tint was not only “practical” when I did look through it but also looked much better than I anticipated. One final note. I was initially concerned about the space/gap on the fairing that I had heard about, in a few other reviews. John, you were spot on 1/16”, not an issue. I don’t know of many companies where you can actually speak directly to the owner and receive a five-year warranty (best in the business) …. Enough said. It’s easy to see why Freedom Shields are by far the BEST!

What a pleasure it is to ride on windy days now.

I just wanted to give you more feedback on the windshield now that I have put a few hundred miles on the bike since installing it. It has been windy here, 20 to 30 mph gusting over 40 and the bike handles so much better with this windshield. The front end used to vibrate in strong wind and the wind noise in my ears was deafening. I wear a short carbon fiber helmet. With the Freedom Shields recurve windshield there is no front-end vibration and no wind noise! What a pleasure it is to ride on windy days now. My gas mileage increased by 3 mpg due to less wind resistance. Thank you again for a truly great product!

This shield is AWESOME!  

John, your quick response to my several emails and completely answering all my questions regarding help on getting the right height was 100% spot on.  I have to admit, high quality customer service is nearly a lost art in retail sales, thank you and the team for outstanding service!   This new shield greatly improved the look of my bike, the stock shield was tall about 15 inches, good protection, terrible glare and not a good fit for me.  With my Freedom Shield, I am looking over it, at a proper height, even if I slouch a little.  My wife as the passenger has good wind protection as well, no wind buffeting and a comfortable ride also.  I have to say your quality control folks have eagle vision, I decided to purchase a “blem”, 8″ touring width that was listed for the 2014 touring bikes, I can barely see where, even with the little sticker showing where the “scratch” is located see any issue or problem on this shield.   I could not be more pleased. I will for sure recommend Freedom Shield to anyone who may be looking for a high-quality windshield, a fantastic customer support team and well packaged/shipped products. Thank you all very much!

It doesn’t vibrate like the stock shield

I just installed my new shield.  It is awesome.  I took for a test ride and it’s dead on.  It’s 1.5” lower than the stock shield and works even better.  It doesn’t vibrate like the stock shield.  Customer service is top notch. Packaging is very, very good even though I hate peanuts.  Lol

What a difference it has made!

I just want to say I love my new Scout 22″ Light Grey Tint windshield. The material is noticeably higher quality and thicker than OEM. What a difference it has made! My speed limit comfort with the old OEM was about 55MPH and with this Freedom Shield it is now 70-80 MPH on a Scout!!

Wow!  What a huge difference.

I received my new Freedom Shield, 23″, medium-tinted, windshield today. I immediately installed it on my 2016 Harley FLSTC and took it for a short 30-mile ride.  Wow!  What a huge difference over the clear, 20″, after-market, windshield I’ve had on my bike for the past two years. The extra 3″ in height and re-curved top virtually eliminates all of the wind that spills over the top of the windshield and the 15% medium-tinting is awesome for significantly reducing the sun and glare that I previously had to contend with on my clear windshield.
