This is the first bike I've ever had a shield on. I guess I'm so used to the wind that anything I do get with my windshield doesn't bother me.
Thats one SWEET LOOKING FATBOY DUDE!!!

Yes I have considered it, but their website is BRUTAL, and I cannot determine whether or not I need to relocate my front signals. Do I have to? AND ALSO, I don't have a light bar on the front? Do they have a Batwing that fits a stock front-end?

I've had the opportunity to ride a couple bikes with fairings and windshields. The buffeting was horrible, I hated it. Having the music was the ONLY plus for me. I'm better off without. Hope you get your situation figured out.

+1 on the Windvest. Keeps the wind off your head and chest. Looks clean and can be detached easily but I leave it on. Their customer service is exemplary.

I'm seriously considering a Windvest, but I can't figure out which height to get (14" or 16"). I've heard that a 16" adjusted down so that it nearly touches the headlight is the way to go.
Anyone got one, and how tall are you?

Mine is 16 inches and the way it's adjusted it's about 1/2 or so above the headlight housing. It's a "light smoke" in color. I am about 5-9 or 5-10, my seat is stock. When I was in CA. the owner installed it with me sitting on the bike and I've left it the way he put it on. If you want a picture up close I can email it, I think.
