Can anyone recommend a good highway windshield for my 2012 Speedmaster? I've heard the Triumph brand shields are not that good and very expensive.

For sure let Eddy give you a hand. I run with a Memphis Shades screen from Eddy and love it. The price was good too!

I'm using the Chopped Switchblade on my Speedmaster. There are a few threads with the part numbers on it floating around here to help put the whole package together. The Switchblade screen is wider and doesn't seem to buffet like the Triumph screen does. YMMV.

I picked up a set of lowers from Eddy. I'm not sure how much good they do, but I'm planning on experimenting with them more this fall.

I just picked up a used Triumph brand windshield for my 05 America but it looks like I'm missing some hardware. It came with some hardware and I have a Triumph brand fly screen but pictures of how it attaches to the bike would be much appreciated. Can anyone help?

Pleasee excuse the mess; got caught in the rain yesterday. If you'll excuse my lousy photography also I'd be grateful.

Lower bracket bolts to the top of the lower triple tree


Upper mount has a flat piece that bolts under the upper, on the same bolt as the cable guides. The support that attaches to the windshield mounts to that.
