Klock Werks Flare Windshield For Harley Electra Glide 1986-1995

Modern Aerodynamics for the Classic Tourer: Klock Werks Flare (1986-1995)

Owners of the 1986–1995 Harley-Davidson Electra Glide know that these Evolution-era machines are built for the long haul, but their vintage fairing designs often struggle with wind turbulence at modern highway speeds. The Klock Werks Flare Windshield is the ultimate solution, bringing 21st-century aerodynamic technology to the classic Batwing fairing. Born on the salt flats of Bonneville, the Flare is not just a windshield; it is a performance-enhancing component. Unlike a standard flat shield that simply acts as a vertical wall against the wind, the Flare is designed with patented “hips” on the outer edges. These hips redirect air to create downward pressure on the front of the fairing, adding up to 15 lbs of downforce. This significantly improves front-end stability, making your FLHT, FLHTC, or FLHTCU feel more “planted” and reducing the wandering sensation caused by crosswinds or the wake of passing trucks.

The Science of the Flip: Eliminating Rider Buffeting

The most distinctive feature of the Klock Werks design is the “flip” at the top edge of the shield. This curve is meticulously engineered to kick the air up and over both the rider and passenger, creating a pocket of clean, laminar airflow. For riders of 1986–1995 models, this means an end to the “head-bobbing” buffeting associated with factory or generic tall shields. Because of this efficient air management, you can often run a shorter Flare windshield than your previous flat shield while achieving better wind protection. This allows for a much cleaner, more aggressive profile for your Electra Glide without sacrificing comfort. Furthermore, the reduced turbulence allows for better audio clarity from your fairing speakers, making your soundtrack as crisp as your ride.

Heavy-Duty Materials and Precision Vintage Fitment

Klock Werks understands that a touring windshield must be as tough as the bike it’s mounted on. The Flare is manufactured from premium, hard-coated polycarbonate, a material far superior to the acrylic used in cheaper alternatives.

• Unmatched Durability: Polycarbonate is virtually shatterproof and offers excellent scratch resistance, ensuring your view remains clear for thousands of miles.
• Perfect OEM Integration: This shield is specifically contoured for the 1986–1995 Batwing fairing, utilizing the factory three-hole mounting pattern for a quick and secure installation.
• Optical Clarity: Despite its radical curves, the Flare offers high-definition clarity, although it is designed for the rider to look over the top rather than through it.
• Made in the USA: Every Flare windshield is proudly designed and manufactured in America, continuing the legacy of quality started by Brian Klock and his team.
