    OEM GW Windshield

    So I was thinking I'd like to try an OEM GW shield but apparently not many people like to sell them.

    Does anyone know why I can buy a 2 inch taller shield from Honda for $220, but to get an OEM shield it's $1200?

    When purchasing a USED Goldwing shield, make sure to ask if it is delaminating or has patches of delamination.

    I replaced my Goldwing shield when the Wing only had 3000 miles, these shields have some type of very thin UV film baked into them and do come apart. I ended up throwing my delaminated shield in the trash.

    Just make sure that the seller discloses all defects.



    Successful people build each other up. They motivate, inspire and push each other. Unsuccessful people just hate, blame and complain.

    For 100 bucks,,, (vs 1200) to TRY a 1st gen OEM shield,,, no big loss if it does end up in the trash! LOL!

    Doubtful that used 2nd gen shields are that plentiful anywho,,,

    For 1st gen, 2010 and earlier, only 200 brand new,,, http://www.partzilla.com/parts/detai...0-MCA-A21.html

    I saw the ones on ebay. Scratched up. I ordered a Memphis Shades standard size shield for $150. New bike/new shield. My Baggershield isn't cutting it since I stiffened up the suspension. The wind hits me in the face again, unless I slouch way down. The reason I didn't order the Honda F6B tall shield is because it's narrower at the top. I'll post my thoughts after I get it.

    I was hoping someone might know why a standard OEM shield is a grand more than a tall OEM shield.
