Man. I hear people bad mouth klockwerks but I got the 5” flare. Which actually measures 5.25 FYI. I love it. I’m 6’2 and top helmet vents still work but listen to radio half way now at 75. Will be interested to hear v stream reviews though

I did look at the reviews for the RG's. It also has 2 reviews for each of the 3 sizes. They are all the same 2 reviews and they were both posted on the same day in 2016. Kind of makes you wander.

With that said there is a big following of the Vstream on the Gold Wing Forums.

Never tried one myself but have been seeing them in the Wing Forums for about 8 yrs. For the Road Glide they are over 200 bucks. I ordered a Long Ride Shield of 79 bucks delivered, having a sale right now.

I also like the LRS shield as I ordered a low rise and hated it. They replaced it with a taller one no problem. I cruise back roads at 55 to 65 mostly and the bugs were deflected right on to my glasses and forehead at the lower speeds. With the taller shield...not so much. They all work ok on the highway at 70 with enough pressure to lift the airstream above your helmet but I find that I actually don't hit the highway that much. just putter around most of the day in the country, try to get the screen so you barely look over the top of it. The LRS "Fip" works IMO.

I've been running a 7" Freedom Shield. Just thought about giving one of these a try. I like the one I have now but the wife gets a lot of air turbulence from the one I have now.

Right now you can get several LRS model shields for $46 bucks shipped.
