Fit Check, Height and Tint Guide
This shield fits
- Harley-Davidson Street Glide, Electra Glide, Ultra Classic, Ultra Limited and Tri Glide with the batwing fairing. Street Glide fitment is 2006–2023 (the model started in 2006); Electra Glide, Ultra Classic and Ultra Limited fitment is 1986–2023. Pick your years in Model Year: 1986-1995 (5 Hole), 1996-2013 or 2014-2023.
- 2009–2013 Tri Glide: pick 1996-2013. 2014-and-later Tri Glide owners can also use the Tri Glide Trike Windshield (2014–2025).
This shield does not fit
The 1996–2013 and 2014–2023 options are the Touring style. about 3" wider at the base on each side and about 2" wider going up the sides than Standard. It is quieter and moves wind off your arms and shoulders and around a passenger. It may not fit with taller aftermarket handlebars.
Choosing your height
How the size is measured: Freedom Shields measures with a tape laid on the front center of the shield, from the top of the fairing to the top edge (the part of the shield you can see). Measure your current shield the same way to compare.
Look over the shield (most riders start here): pick the height that puts the top edge about level with the tip of your nose in your normal riding position. That gives you about 2" to see over the top while the AirCurve sends the wind higher.
Look through the shield: pick the height that puts the top edge about 2" above your line of sight. You get more coverage, but it is harder to see through when the shield is wet or dirty.
Still not sure? Put a strip of painter's tape on your current shield at the height you're thinking about (or tape a piece of cardboard to it) and take a short ride. Then use Ask a Rider and we'll check your height before your shield is built.
Choosing your tint
Tint is mostly about the look and glare. It does not change fit or airflow.
-
Clear – best visibility at night, in rain and on long multi-day rides.
-
Light Grey – takes the edge off glare and stays easy to see through.
-
Medium Grey – cuts daytime glare and still looks clean. It's the tint our riders order most.
-
Dark Grey – the darkest look and the most glare cut. Best if you ride mostly in daylight and look over the shield. Harder to see through at night and in the rain.
Test it with the film on. Your shield ships with protective film on it. Leave the film on for your test ride. If the height isn't right, contact us before you take the film off.
