mounts easily with with mounting kit sold separately looks good. But I expected it to flip the wind over my head. It stops the wind from hitting you in the chest but thats all. I think the top of the shield could have had a curve to it. to flip the air flow up higher. To install on my 2007 Low rider the quick mount kit had to be slid up to its highest point and the adjustment on the windshield had to be slid all the way up to clear the headllight.

I'm pleased with the quality and ease of use.
Looks great and was very easy to install. It performed exactly how I wanted it to..
Love it. Takes the wind blast of your chest up through 80MPH. And looks very sporty on my Super Glide Custom. Black on black.
