Re: Bike Shades are a Hit
I was asked if our Bike Shades can be mounted along with the existing Eye Brow shields. They can. It does take some doing. But it can be done.

Re: Bike Shades are a Hit
Generally when adding the visors from HD, there's a different set of trim rings needed for more clearance.

the trim rings in that picture are the stock ones. Not the revised ones. but they still were mounted there together. It's not easy, but it can be done.
I think the revision ones dont show the gap at their bottom that ya see in those pictures.
Which only means that with my Bike Shades one doesnt have to purchase the revised set that HD sells.

Re: Bike Shades are a Hit
I've got one reservation about them. I keep my passing lights on all the time to improve my visibility to cagers during the day. If they truly put out a bit more light from the uncovered bottom portion due to internal reflection it may be OK.

I've only had one oncoming driver get confused by the passing lights coming on with the low beam. That was riding two up, at night, in a rain storm.

I'm going to find out. I just ordered a set and we'll see what happens.
