Each to his/her own but personally I love apes & I actually think windscreens & apes do work well together & depending on the one you get, look pretty cool.
I like the wind in my face but not a combination wind, rain, sand etc
Windscreens on a distance run are a godsend.

When it's below 45 degrees and you're traveling a long distance, the windshield is a godsend and I really don't care what you might think. It's more important to not freeze than meet some unwritten Harley fashion rule. SJ Ron

I go without the windshield when tooling around town but definately put it on for longer trips on the interstate. I like the way it looks much better without the windshield but I don't think mine looks bad at all with the 17" recurve long ride tinted shield I use. At 70 miles an hour the windshield makes the ride so much more enjoyable/comfortable.
