Default Klock Werks Billboard Windshield

Has anyone heard anything about these windshields?

http://www.kustombaggers.com/product...ucts=billboard

I saw them at Sturgis and the idea behind them kind of intrigued me.

Default Klock Werks Billboard Flare

In responce to the Billboard search for opinions. The Billboard is AMAZING. Today i took a 2010 FLHR out on a designated path which contained in town traffic, highway (65mph) and interstate (75mph) and then took the exact same route with the Billboard windshield.

The little things were just as good as the big things. The stability of the bike, stock shield there was a good flutter/front end dance around 60-70mph with the stock, none with the Billboard.

With wearing a loose shirt, the stock shield kept routing the air to blow up my shirt and the Billboard gave a smooth backwords wind, The shirt didnt lift anymore.

Was able to feel wind on the hands at 5mph with the stock shield and only a slight wind at 50mph with the billboard.

So between the stability, the buffetting little to none, and the protection gained, this is hands down a 100% success.

The clearview doesn't quite look as good to me. There is little on the site that would make me choose that over the Klockworks one. I'd like to hear from someone that tried it though.

I paid double the money for the klock werks cuz not only does it have the flare on top, it is also 1-2'' wider at the handle bars "hips'', and it has flares on the lower corners.
Took it out this weekend for the 1st time and what an improvement and we only had a high of 63f today with wind.
