NOTE
A service manual for your model motorcycle is available from a Harley-Davidson dealer.
INSTALLATION
- Lower the windshield into position by carefully inserting the side brackets between the headlamp housing and the passing lamp supports until the bottom notches are seated on the lower grommets.
- Standing at the front of the motorcycle, gently push the top of the windshield toward the rear until the upper notches fully engage the upper grommets.
- Push down on the wireform latch springs until the springs overhang the rubber grommets.
NOTE
Be sure that the notches on each bracket are firmly seated on a rubber grommet.
NOTE
If some adjustment is necessary, loosen the retaining bolts and rotate the latch springs into the proper position.
CARE AND CLEANING
NOTE
Sunlight reflections off of the inside curvature of a windshield can, at certain times of the day, cause extreme heat build-up on motorcycle instruments. Exercise care in parking. Park facing the sun, place an opaque object over the instruments, or adjust the windshield to avoid reflections.
NOTICE
Use only Harley-Davidson recommended products on Harley-Davidson windshields. Do not use harsh chemicals or rain sheeting products, which can cause windshield surface damage, such as dulling or hazing. (00231c)
Do not clean Lexan® polycarbonate in hot sun or high temperature. Powdered, abrasive or alkaline cleanser will damage the windshield. Never scrape the windshield with a razor blade or other sharp instruments because permanent damage will result.
NOTE
Covering the windshield with a clean, wet cloth for about 15 minutes before washing will make dried bug removal easier.
Harley-Davidson Windshield Water Repellent Treatment Part Number 99841-01 is approved for use on Harley-Davidson Lexan® windshields.
