GEN-3 Road Glide Vent Screens – Triple SPLITSCREENS for the ROAD GLIDE Touring Motorcycles
Motorcycle Vent Screens is the premiere manufacturer of high-quality GEN-3 Touring SPLITSCREENS for Harley-Davidson® motorcycles with ventilated fairings. Our beefy thick 14-gauge powder-coated aluminum honeycomb screens protect the motorcyclist from stinging insects and impacts of road debris passing through the unprotected factory vents. The ~77% open area of our motorcycle vent screens allows for a comfortable “wind in your face” ride without the “bugs in your teeth” experience. The Gloss Black SPLITSCREENS elegantly blend in with the darker vent opening. Order your set today!
Road Glide GEN-3 Triple SPLITSCREENS Installation Concepts
The installation time for our Triple SPLITSCREENS varies mostly from 20 minutes (Harley® Tech) to an hour (most of us) depending on the installer’s skills and experience. Once installed, these classy screens look like they should have shipped that way from the factory!
INSTALLATION: Surprisingly EASY* for the vast majority of riders! We include links to public YouTube instructional videos for the following 2 installation tasks:
- GEN-3 Road Glide Outer Fairing removal, by far the easiest of the 3 generations of the Road Glide (for the installation of our Center SPLITSCREEN);
- GEN-3 Road Glide Headlight removal (must follow task #1. An easy 6 bolts removal for the (press into place) installation of our Side SPLITSCREENS)
*We believe the vast majority of riders will be comfortable drilling four tiny 5/32″ holes in the hidden SUB-ASSY AIR DUCT TOP! No painted surface of your new Road Glide is marred because you drill into an unfinished plastic vent panel hidden beneath the Top Vent Cover. Our unique and proprietary center screen support method involves the installation of a black-oxide coated stainless steel hardware support package included with your purchase. Easy to follow instructions are provided in your package along with a PASS-PHRASE providing LOGIN† access to our Install SUPPORT web-page which offers easy to follow VISUAL INSTRUCTIONS to complete your quality installation. †LOGIN discourages intellectual theft of our proprietary installation system.

A message from the President of Elegant Solutions Inc. dba Motorcycle Vent Screens: My very first “Touring Bike” was an FLHTK Batwing Limited, however the Harley-Davidson® Road Glide® became my favorite touring motorcycle the first time I rode one! The “Shark Nose” frame mounted fairing offers both high speed stability cutting through the air at touring speeds as well as low speed maneuverability with the handlebars “free” of the weight of the fairing. My BSR (back seat rider) wife is extraordinarily comfortable riding with me and considers this bike to be a “limo on 2 wheels”!
