Neither of the HD windshields block anything on the Rocker - a waste of money. I bought one and only used it once when I was riding in the rain.

I'm working on adding a lip on my HD windshield to hopefully get more wind protection. If it works I'll post the results.

I think I'd rather be blown to bits than put a windshield on a Rocker. Just my opinion.

Hey all...well my experience with windshields is this...never had one on my old 600 cc standard yamaha for 3 years.....never had one on my rocker for about 2 months and then bought the larger clear shield for the winter (im 6'3") and well it makes a huge difference for me...maybe cus ive never been behind a larger shield but hey I love it!

Besides for winter riding I just drop my snowboarding jacket and pants over my leathers and am all toasty no matter what...

Im just saying it blocks enough for me....
