I'm 5'7" and thinking of getting the QD Windshield for my Fat Bob. I was measured previously for the 19". This seemed pretty tall to me but what do I know. Will I get buffeting with my height? The posts I've read appears that the buffetting occurs with taller riders. Should I invest? My dealer has 20% discount on accessories this weekend. Thanks for your replies!
In my experience unless you get some kind of wind deflectors or lowers with the windshield you will probably get buffeting. That being said, if you go on long highway rides a windshield (even with buffeting) will go a long way in making the ride more enjoyable.
Thanks but I like the Black Braces. The bike is Deep Blue Pearl and I have Black V&H pipes and the SE black air filter.
So take the polished ones off and either paint or powder coat them. Since ordering a new one in black is about $399 it would still be a lot cheaper. The braces unbolt from the shield, otherwise if you ever damaged one you'd be stuck buying a complete new set.
Heck you could even paint the braces Deep Blue Pearl with a few cans of touch up paint and it would match your bike specifically.
