I like my Windvest as well. 2 clamps takes about 5 minutes to install/uninstall

I have a 14" Windvest. It works great for me even at highway speeds. I like the clean simple look.

How much does that windvest go 4? I like the look of it, that full windshield is huge and ugly...

I have the HD sport shield with quick disconnects. It only goes on for rides of 200 miles or more. My scooter is a Wide Glide, but I have the FB headlights and had the shield cut to accommodate the wider lights.

I got my Windvest On Ebay used for $150...they're $350 new.
I have learned that if have modded your Bars and or Risers you'll need to call windvest to figure out which will fit.

Deflector DX from National Cycle. This is the same one I used on my 1200R, just had them send me the 1.25" bar clamps. $129 for a quick disconnect windshield is awesome. Adjusts up/down/forward/back, raked forward/back. No buffeting once you figure out the position. Mine is raked back a little more than the angle of the forks.

I had a HD QD and absolutely hated it-even my eyeball would vibrate from the turbulence.
