Default WindVest Windshield on Fatboy

Has anybody installed a WindVest Windshield on a Fatboy. I need to get a windshield for long trips, but I don't realy like the look of a windshield on a fatboy. I have seen a few pictures if Windvest Shield and like the look a little better than stock Harley. If anybody has a Windvest on a Harley Fatboy, please let me know if you like it and how it performes. Also post some pictures if you have any. Thanks

The WindVest is great...for what it is.
It's designed to keep wind off your chest and reduce fatigue.
You'll still have wind in the face and most bugs will be deflected around you.
The vest is expensive, but very high quality.
What that being said...I like my WindVest.

Nice Fatboy. What size WindVest is on your bike? Looks like a 14 inch.
