Default 9 inch Flyscreen

I really don't want a windshield, but I do ride 64 miles a day to work and it's getting in the 20-30's every morning. Has anyone tried a national 9" Flyscreen? Just looking to keep so wind off my chest and face till Spring or low 40's.

I don't like wind shields, but that one doesn't seem to bad.

I tried the flyscreen. It is ok at speeds of over 70mph. Keeps wind off you chest only still get it on your face. There is no difference at speeds under 60mph. Im goingbto be listing mine its like new since i only used it for one ride. Pm me if your interested. National cycle's stinger is a great quick release windscreen although its almost full size.

Had one on my Sporty for awhile. Works pretty good, knocks the wind off your chest at least. I had problems with the wind catching the front of my helmet weird, but I drag bars with no riser, so I sat pretty forward. It's a good piece if that's what you're looking for. You ride that much tho, I'd just pop for a detachable windshield.

I have one and it works great if you have a FF helmet which I always do - it keeps 80% of the wind off your chest and hits about mid helmet with no buffeting at all. I suppose you could try adjusting it but I'm happy with it as is - provides just the level of protection I was after and looks pretty good doing it.

I use a sport shield that HD sells for the Rocker C. It looks like a big fly screen and works great. I painted mine on the inside so it's all black and I like the look. If you search for some of my older posts you may find some pictures that I have posted. My commute is 60 miles of interstate and I wouldn't thing of doing it without the shield.
