My wife and I have matching Road King Specials. After riding with a wind splitter at one at our local dealer Demo day this was the windshield for us. Looks great and matches our riding. I don’t notice much difference adjusting the vent.
@@jagjr6772 super cool that you guys have matching Kings! The only time I’ve notice much difference using the vent is at 70+ MPH. You guys ride safe out there!
I had the wind splitter on my '17 RK Special and didn't like it lot of buffeting either with the trap adjustability . I swapped to Freedom shield on OEM bracket and it was a great improvement for me. you're custom bracket may be a good solution for the buffeting .
I also have a 23 RKS I just recently picked up with very similar bars and had the same situation with the bars having to be pulled back. In my case it worked for me since I’m shorter (5’7/5/8). Had a road warrior fairing on my last bike and this by far gives me better wind protection while still looking nice. Those long ride shields don’t really match the hot rod style of the RKS in my opinion. Cheers man and I’ll be doing a vid on this as well since I just competed a 1,700 mile trip without issues
The Windsplitter is a POS. My 2014 FLHR came with one and while I agree that it looks reasonably good it is only suitable for someone 5’-8” or less because anyone taller is going to experience buffeting at your helmet. Why on earth they didn’t make a model that is 3 or 4” taller is beyond me. I have ordered a 19.5” tall KlockWerks Flare to replace the WindSplitter and I am confident that it will function much better for me.
@@marklammers6117 thanks for checking out the video. I agree that the buffeting was present, but after changing the angle of the brackets, that disappeared. I’m not convinced the flaws are in the Windsplitter itself, but rather, I believe the stock brackets to be the issue! Klock Werks makes a great product and I hope that setup works flawlessly for you!
Hello A Rev Moto NC. Thank you for sharing your content. Really like the way your wind splitter sits I want the same for mine. I message chuck and have not hear back. Is he still making wind splitter brackets. Bike looking good. Thanks.
@@teddyvargas9511 thank you for stopping in and checking out the channel! I’m disappointed in the communication that folks seem to be experiencing with Chuck. He was very interested in making these for others, but hasn’t been very good about responding to emails. I’ve reached out to him every time someone comments that they have emailed him. He acknowledged it, but doesn’t seem to be responding. I’m so very sorry about that. I’ll reach out again and see if that helps!
The dealer should have informed you that the bars will have to be moved before installing. This is why I keep my HD bolt on windshield, it is very adjustable up and down and tilt at the angle I want.
@@truthbetold-jq8iw one would think, right? LoL. When I told them I didn’t like it because side they moved the bars, they said they couldn’t return a windshield after it was installed.. SMH
Maybe I wasn’t the only one having an issue with it! HaHaHa. Thanks for watching. I’ll make sure the next video is about a product that’s still in production! lol
It’s back ordered on Harley Davidson website. But you can ordered it. It says it will be shipped within 4 weeks but I had mine shipped with less than a week and a half.
Based on what I’m seeing with a quick google search, I would have the same problem with the Long Ride Shields as I did with the Windsplitter since it uses the same style mounting system. I still want to know more, though!!

The new brackets definitely shifted the angle slightly which put the wind just above my head!

Good luck with that cockwerks, It was way worse on the noggin. I went back to my wind splitter
Good stuff Rev, consider me subscribed. I'm looking at getting that windshield as well on my RKS. I hope to see more content from you soon.
Thanks, my friend! More content is on the way!

It's no longer available for sale. Can't get it.

It’s trash waist of money if anyone wants a wind splitter contact me. Long Ride shields is the way to go.
@@adventureornot7517 thanks for watching! I’ve never heard of Long Ride Shields. Tell me more! revmotonc@gmail.com

A second LRS recommendation here. They’ll advise size to you, but it looks like you’re good to go!
@@timc7175 thanks for that! I am good for now, but I’m always trying new things, so I’m glad to see another option!
I’ve emailed Chuck to order one set of the hardware but no response.
@@ffaneco I’ll make sure he responds! Thanks for checking in!
I'm also waiting for a response. As soon as I seen this video I had hope lol I'm ready to buy the bracket ASAP.
@@xOGShroomzx I’ll check with him.
Just emailed him, fingers crossed
@@rodwinch4378 Thanks for watching! I just sent him a text to give a heads up on your email!
