    Does anybody have a source for good replacement windshield for an 84 through 86? I’ve been thinking about perhaps making my own vacuum form if I can’t find a good supplier or someplace.
    I found this on eBay, which looks good. But I’m also aware of buying junk on eBay.

    Yeah, this particular seller seemed the best. Everyone just looks like a cheap, thin piece of plastic.
    I appreciate the response.

    What about the molding on top of the windscreen?

    Some of mine have it - some don't.

    Is this something that can be sourced as a generic item and cut to fit?

    I see they also have Airtech screens, which piqued my interest. And then I learned that Airtech closed. Damn. If i were in plastics, I would have bought some molds (i'm in steel). I'm glad I got a new set up upper and lowers last year.

    just to follow up, you probably want something like Trim-Lok. It's a real company and not some Amazon drop-ship nightmare.

    Go to bikescreen.com. Where it says "Search your bike here", enter VF 500 F. Five products will come up.

    Ok. Found some listings on that site. It was the other one mentioned, screensforbikes.com that did not list any.
