That's a great looking bike! Have you put any miles on it with the fairing? Do you notice any difference?

There is a pretty noticeable difference, much less wind in the face but still a good amount. I only bought it for the 1,000 mile trip to texas I will be taking in about a week but I will probably leave it on. I was surprised how good it looked on the bike once installed.

I had to make a few height/tilt adjustments to mine until I got it so most of the wind flows just over my head...

Do it!! It makes the bike look mean, especially with the black lowers like mine.

That shield looks really nice on there. In fact the whole bike looks great.

I would suggest rolling those handlebars back down a bit. They look like they would be uncomfortable on the wrists the way they are tilted up...IMHO.

Firebird and hd - how tall are you guys? Do you ride with a helmet and if so is there any buffeting? I really like the looks of that shield but I'm too old to ride without reasonable wind protection.

Thanks

5'9" and no helmet. i started with their smallest shield (del rey), but it was virtually useless on my street bob. several months later i decided to give the larger one a try (rio grande) and it is working for me (after the aforementioned adjustments)...
