Default Windsplitter on Road King?

I'm looking to replace the w/s on my new FLHR, and am considering the Moco's Windsplitter.

The 10" unit I installed on my Ultra performed very well, but the dealership can't give me info on this one, and they don't have a demo in stock.

I'm not locked into this, so if anyone has advice on another brand/style I'm open to suggestions.

Thanks guys!

Did a little browsing online and found a manufacturer called Clear View Shields. Half the cost and they look like good products.

I'll keep looking.

I have several from Long Ride Shield. Quality and customer service is good. They are running at 70% off right now.

The w/s came stock on my 2014 FLHRSE. I'm 6' with a 34" inseam. The w/s was too short for me. The helmet area above the visor was splattered with bugs after every ride, and I experienced lots of wind buffeting. I replaced it with a Klock Werks 20" - the bugs are no longer an issue and the buffeting became just a bit quieter (I added wind deflectors and the buffeting is almost nonexistent).

I have a 2014 Flores. The stock windshield for me was worse than no windshield. I feel like all the wind is directed at my face. I run a stock type shield off my 2002 road king.

I thought the dealers had demo shields you could ride with,, to get an idea what you liked?

They carry some demos for the batwings & road glide, but not for the king.
