Description

This Harley-Davidson heat shield with feathers embossing is made of beautiful buffed bridle leather.  It has a ply of split leather (Suede) on the bottom, so nothing can scratch your motorcycle. Both layers are glued together with industrial cement and stitched around the edges. Then we  emboss it with our feathers design, leaving a border to add studs or a tooled border.

In order to install your Harley Davidson heat shield with feathers embossing you remove your seat. Take your heat shield and let some lukewarm water run over the top layer for about 30-60 seconds. Line up the opening in the heat shield on the frame so the tang of the seat can insert into the frame. Put your seat back on. The wings will stick out at first, but will “relax” the more you ride your bike with it.

The care for your leather is very important as it can curl when it dries out. Treat is like your best pair or shoes with a leather conditioner that contains beeswax like “Aussie” or “Skidmore” from Fiebing. The beeswax will repel water and protect from the sun rays. Keep a close eye on the leather and give it the TLC that it needs according to the climate you live in.

Please post your installed heat shield on our Facebook page. We love to see your bikes.

    High quality product & Great Service!!!! Bought this for my girl’s Softail Slim. She wanted a blue crystal in the center. Isabel called and explained that she found one she thought would work better. I trusted her judgment. Just got it last night. My lady is thrilled! The leather and embossing work is top-notch! And the crystal is just right. Thanks much!!!!

    Beautiful. Elegant, & Effective. I bought this for my wife’s Slim and she absolutely LOVES it! Not one complaint about engine heat since I put it on a month ago. Thanks Captain Itch.

    I rode my ’95 FLHTCUI over 110,000 miles and more than once blistered my inner thigh on the hot motor. I’m only 5’2″ and my legs weren’t long enough to get away from the heat at a stop or while backing up. I recently inherited my late husband’s 2007 FLHTCUI and it runs even hotter! I searched the internet and found plastic heat “shields.” They looked flimsy. Then I found this site and ordered one. IT WORKS. Period. No more scorching heat on my inner thigh and I was just able to back it into my spot in the garage without waiting a half hour for it to cool down. Highly recommended!
