Memphis Shades Road Warrior Windshield

Memphis Shades Road Warrior Windshield: Tailor Your Air Pocket for Maximum Comfort

Fine-tune your wind protection with the Memphis Shades Road Warrior Windshield. This is the required upper component for the popular Road Warrior Fairing, allowing riders to customize both the aesthetic and the aerodynamic performance of their front end. Specifically popular among Harley-Davidson Dyna, Sportster, and Softail owners, the Road Warrior system is the gold standard for the “Club Style” look. By choosing the correct windshield height and tint, you can transform your fairing from a low-profile street brawler into a high-performance touring setup that keeps you in the saddle longer with less fatigue.

Premium Lucite® Construction and Optical Clarity

Every Road Warrior Windshield is manufactured from Lucite® acrylic, a high-grade material that offers superior optical clarity compared to standard factory plastics. Lucite® is prized in the aftermarket Harley parts industry for its exceptional UV resistance, ensuring that your shield will not yellow, haze, or become brittle over years of exposure to the elements. The material is also incredibly durable, providing the chassis reliability needed to withstand high-speed wind pressure and road debris. Its smooth, polished edges provide a finished, professional look that complements any Stage 1 styling upgrade.

Finding Your Perfect Height (7″ to 17″)

Because rider height and seating position vary greatly, Memphis Shades offers the Road Warrior windshield in a vast array of heights. The goal is to find a balance where the air is kicked over your helmet without obstructing your line of sight.

• 7″ to 11″ Windshields: Perfect for riders who want to maintain a “slammed,” aggressive look while still diverting wind off their chest.
• 13″ to 15″ Windshields: The “sweet spot” for most riders, providing a significant air pocket that reduces helmet buffeting at highway speeds.
• 17″ Windshields: The ultimate choice for V-Twin performance touring, offering maximum protection for tall riders or those on long-distance cross-country trips.

Selectable Tints for Style and Function

Customization doesn’t stop at height. The Road Warrior Windshield is available in several tint options to match your bike’s chassis styling upgrade. Choose Dark Smoke for a blacked-out, aggressive look that blends seamlessly with a black fairing shell. Smoke (medium tint) offers a balanced look with 30% light transmission, while Ghost (a light black tint) provides a subtle aesthetic. For riders who often travel at night or in low-light conditions, the Clear option ensures 100% visibility for maximum safety during your Harley-Davidson service intervals.

Seamless “Bolt-On” Integration

The Road Warrior Windshield is designed for a perfect fitment with the Road Warrior Fairing shell. It features a simple bolt-on installation using the fairing’s existing mounting points. This mechanical precision ensures a rattle-free connection, even under the heavy vibrations of a Milwaukee-Eight or Twin Cam engine. This modularity allows you to own multiple windshields—a short one for local bike nights and a tall one for the weekend rally—and swap them out in minutes with basic hand tools.

Installation and Care Tips

When installing your new Memphis Shades windshield, ensure you use the rubber washers provided with your fairing to prevent stress cracking around the mounting holes. To maintain the surface protection of the Lucite® material, clean only with mild soap and water or a specialized plastic cleaner like All Kleer. Never use ammonia-based window cleaners, as they can cause “crazing” or small cracks in the acrylic over time. Check the mounting screws periodically during your regular Harley-Davidson maintenance to ensure they remain snug.
