Fast Aire 9" Aero vs. Klock Werks 8.5" Flare
Tested the 8.5" Klock Werks Flare last fall, and then the 9"Fast Aire Aero this spring, both in dark gray. I know this is just a matter of personal preference, but stop the presses, the results are in. Klock Werks makes a really nice windshield, but for me, the Fast Aire looks better and is far superior at reducing buffeting. It also seems that the Klock Werks is pretty spendy for what it is IMO. Not trying to rag on anyone's product, but I think I'll be running the Aero from here on out. Don't have any opinion yet as to long term durability between the two.

I think that they're both ugly as homemade soap.
Look like they got melted in the sun.
I tried the KW 6.5 and ditched it after several rides.
I prefer the more traditional look w/a little flip at the top, but hey if you're happy that's all that matters.
I'm currently running a 9 inch LRS and have a 10" Aero from Fast Aire that I bought as I purchased the HD Hammock seat which sits you up about an inch further than does the HD Sundowner.
It is ugly too but it is comfortable, so I had to compromise and bought a 10", but so far the 9" from LRS is still good.
