Selecting Your
Harley Davidson Windshield


If you are looking for a Harley Davidson windshield, Memphis Shades offers a wide selection.
 
A common question is how to select the proper windshield for a particular application. This is a very subjective matter that requires some thought on the consumer’s part. How much protection do I want? What appearance change am I interested in? Do I want it to detach? What budget do I have?

Once you answer these questions you can define what you require. Memphis Shades are probably the most popular selling aftermarket windshields. Memphis Shades has a variety of smaller windshields available in a wide variety of colors. The Del Rio, Del Ray, El Paso and the Rio Grande are examples of their Sportshield style smaller units.


All the Memphis Shades are quick detach (except those Road Kings). The key to understanding how to apply a Memphis Shade is to realize that the windshields are the same in a wide variety of applications. To make it work for you, the appropriate mounting hardware must be purchased. For example, you would like to use a Black Del Rio on your ’03 Dynaglide. 750-289 is the windshield PN, the mounting hardware PN 750-430.

The Harley rider that requires more protection will be more interested in the Memphis Fat or Slims. The Memphis Fats are available in 4 different heights to give whatever appearance you desire, Memphis Slims have 2 different heights. Generally accepted practice is for the top of the windshield to be even with the tip of the riders nose. This allows the rider to look over the windshield, but not through it. Of course there are no hard and fast rules regarding this, so if you would like a different height, it’s perfectly acceptable.

Memphis Shades makes a very fine Harley Davidson windshield manufactured from ICI Lucite plastic, for crystal clear clarity. If additional protection is desired to keep the wind and noise coming up from the road, Memphis Shades markets Custom Lowers to combat this. These quick detach units follow the lead of their bigger brothers in that the way to make them work is to select the proper hardware for your application. Available in the same colors, this can be the correct finishing touch.
