Great product; too short to block wind
Looks nice, but way too short to be an effective windshield. Even at in-town speeds it felt like no windshield at all.
National Cycle Switchblade Chopped windshield for cruiser and touring V-twin motorcycles, offering a cut-down profile that's 4-5 inches shorter than the full-size 2-UP. Designed for riders with lower saddle heights or those seeking a sportier wind-blocking setup without excessive height.
Fits V-twin motorcycles including Harley-Davidson Softail models and Indian Motorcycle cruisers. Mounting kits are sold separately based on your specific model.

Installed on a 2013 FLS Harley Davidson.<br /><br />Pros:<br />- Very good looking on the FLS model.<br />- I no longer need to put on an eyes protection while riding within the city.<br />- The windchill is way less severe now.<br />- Easy on, easy off.<br /><br />Cons:<br />- Wind buffeting is crazy out in the highway.
Highest quality apparent in every aspect. Be sure to unlock before mounting. Unit is shipped locked. Good wind break without dominating the appearance of the bike. Mounted on '12 FLS.
