I don't look through any of mine so they are all dark tint. It is the cool factor.

I hear you..I got the AC option on mine..well worth it.. As an added note to WG,
windshield that hasn't had some buffeting does not exist if it's big enough to do any thing, especially around big trucks. However, opposite to what most think, if you set your fall off to the minimum, you will get the minimum of it since if it's set to maximum, you tend to oversteer. The modern Harley with tapered roller in the steering head does not need the preload of the older ball bearing ones. My bike is steady at 65 around truck with simple body English to keep it in a straight line. However, you can fill the buffeting. When bad I just drop back out of it. It's a motorcycle. Going 1K without a shield would whip my *** and I wear a full face.
