I was getting my head wipped around at 55, now at 80 mph
the low pressure wind is well behaved..

I have the HD deflectors. I don't notice a big difference around town, but they seem to work pretty good at highway speeds, plus they add alot of chrome to the front end.

They don't list the FXSTD in fitment though. I suspect they are only designed for the FL (touring) front end.

i just got my 07 duece... got the windshield for it too... it's semi-detachable... some of the docking hardware stays on the front but, you can take the winshiels off.... it's tapered, to fit the duece's styling... mine's a light smoked. wish i would have had it, when i was on vacation, getting battered by the wind, up in the mountains.. i'm pro windshields...

perhaps a different helmet might help?

Now that it's getting warmer, my windshield stays off....

the bike looks a million times better without it, and I'm not on the highway much.
If Ido 45mph I'm lucky, and I like it that way!

Thanks for the replies. So it seems to lose the buffeting I need to remove the windshield. If I use the windshield there are no air, wind, deflectors for the DEUCE to solve the buffeting problem. More and more I'm sorry I bought a HD Deucewith very few available after market options.

Shortly it will be for sale and I'll head back to the metrics......I've never had this many problems getting comfortable on a bike in my life. Doesn't seem worth the effort anymore...................

Crusher, check out www.windvest.comI have one on my fxstc and there's no (zero, zilch, nix) buffeting at all. It's also a much cleaner look than a traditional windscreen. It might take a little patience adjusting the windvest's height / angle to suit your height and bars, but that's it. Mine took less than 10 minutes to set up, including opening the wrapping!

IMO a big windscreen and wind deflectors spoil the lines ofa deuce. To see a windvest on a Deuce take a look at Voodoo's Deuce https://www.hdforums.com/albumphoto....=1&apage=1
