Choosing a Size
Looking Over the Windshield
The ideal height is where the top edge of the windshield is level with the tip of your nose. This gives you about 2” to see over the top of the windshield when you are looking straight ahead. With this height, the wind will clear the top of your head for a comfortable and quiet ride. The taller you go the better it feels, especially for the passenger, as long as the top edge doesn’t creep up into your line of sight.
Looking Through the Windshield
The ideal height is where the top edge of the windshield is about 2″ above your line of sight. This gives the most comfort and protection for both the rider and the passenger, but when it rains and the windshield gets wet and dirty it gets harder to see through the windshield.
Measuring Tips
– If you have a tall windshield on your bike, you can place a piece of Blue Painters Masking Tape on your windshield with the top edge of the tape at different heights and take a short ride to get settled into your normal riding position.
– If you have a short windshield on your bike, you can tape different size pieces of cardboard on your windshield with Blue Painters Masking Tape and take a slow ride to get settled into your normal riding position.
Test Ride our Windshield
Your windshield will come with a protective plastic film applied to both sides of the windshield. Make sure to leave the plastic on the windshield, mount the windshield and take a short test ride, as long as you have good visibility.
If you are not completely satisfied with the height or performance of the windshield, you may return the windshield for a different size or for full credit (less any shipping charges) as long as the windshield is like new and the protective plastic film has not been removed.
Take your time . . . make sure it is right. No worries if you order in the winter months and it takes until Spring to try it out.

20″ Dark Grey for the Road King
Rider Reviews
I’m not wore out and fatigued at the end of a long day.
I wish I’d known about aftermarket windshields sooner! I’ve had my 20” Freedom Shield for about a year now and I am so happy with it! I was riding with wind slap around my head for years, not knowing it could be remedied. I am much more comfortable now, especially on long rides. I’m not wore out and fatigued at the end of a long day. A Freedom Shield, paired with fork wind deflectors, will take almost all the buffeting of your head and torso. Highly recommend!

Absolutely amazing!
Hi John, I just had to write. I wear prescription progressive glasses, usually I have to wear goggles over them or a shield on my helmet to keep my eyes from watering and drying out and my glasses from shaking. Also, my ears would whistle after a long ride. Today I road 100 miles for the first time in a long time with just my glasses, no goggles or helmet shield, in total comfort and no ear whistling! Absolutely amazing, Thank you!

My wife and I are amazed at the difference it made
I put on my 22″ Medium Tint Windshield on my 2015 Road King. My original was a factory 22″ clear. My wife and I are amazed at the difference it made; we now just get a nice steady breeze without any buffeting at all. I think if I was to do one thing different, I may have gone with the light tint. I do look through the windshield with my height and setup and it is a little dark at night, but we don’t do much driving at night anyway. I can sit up and look over it too if I need to. Overall, we are very pleased with it.

Perfect fit
Good afternoon, John. I can’t thank you enough for the fantastic customer service, turnaround time, and shipping for my new windshield! It arrived this afternoon and took about 15 minutes to put together and mount back on my bike. Perfect fit, very heavy duty, and easy to follow instructions.

Quality is Fantastic as always
All my Harley’s have had a Freedom Shield windshield installed on them. So, when I purchased my 2021 Road King Special, of course I had to install one. I went with the 18″ in the Dark Grey Tint. It works really great with an all black bike. After installing it, I took it out for a test ride (plastic covering still on as the directions state), and at 75 mph, there’s hardly any buffering at all. It makes riding this bike all the more enjoyable. As long as I continue riding, a Freedom Shields windshield will be on my bike. Keep up the great work John.

The wife loves it.
The windshield came in the other day, and I got it on the bike. The wife loves it, says it puts the air up over her head and even provides a bit of shoulder protection from the wind too being a bit wider than that screaming eagle windshield that it replaced. And I think it looks a lot better also, it looks more proportioned to the bike. Thank you.

The air pocket is now a smooth enjoyable breeze instead of a turbulent nuisance.
3 years and 4 windshields later I finally tried a Freedom Shield from John. All of my buffeting problems that I had spent time and money to make go away went away instantly. The air pocket is now a smooth enjoyable breeze instead of a turbulent nuisance. Do yourself a favor and skip all the rest and just call John. You won’t be disappointed!

The wait for my 18″ Freedom Windshield for my Road King was worth it.
The wait for my 18″ Freedom Windshield for my Road King was worth it. The package arrived undamaged and flawless. Immediately installed, all holes fit, the optics convinced me. Great. After the first ride, I was thrilled. The buffet was almost gone. Thanks for the great work and support. I will gladly recommend you further. Attached is a picture of my RK with Freedom Windshield 18″.

Quality is top-notch
I really like my Freedom Shield on my 2019 Road King. I’ve probably ridden at least 4000 miles behind it now and it’s just right. On the stock shield, my line of sight was right at the top of the shield, exactly the wrong place. I’m 6’ 2” tall. I ordered an 18” Freedom Shield and I look comfortably over it, and the upturned lip at the top does a great job of reducing turbulence on my helmet. Quality is top-notch, too, with the smooth edges and the holes lined up perfectly with the stock hardware. You and your team should be proud of your product.
