Windshield for 2006 Sporty..

I am looking at Windshields for my 06 Sportster. Was not aware until i started looking at the variety of sizes available. What size is recommended, or is there a recommendation... or just preference... I primarily want it to keep some of the bug, and colder air in the fall and winter here in Florida off of me.

Also, i was on JP Cycle looking at them there, what is the difference between clear and Solar... on there pictures they look exactly the same.

when it comes to the moco, and their shields, you are gonna pay alot. but to be honest, they have the best mount system out there...its a 10 second deal to take it off, or put it on...and in my mind, its worth the extra green.....g

I had the H-D QD windshield on my Sportster...it was money well spent as it is a fine piece of work! I think you'd like it!

big6X6, that is a really pretty Sportster. The windshield looks great on it. I have ordered the same one. Are there any chrome pieces for this bike that you don't have yet?
