I love my windshield. It is a 14" Windvest. I bought it when I bought the bike because the guy told me it was the best quality and very easy to take off for riding around town, but after seeing it on the bike, I don't want to take it off! I think it looks great, and it definitely helps on the freeway.

As crazy as it sounds, I put a windshield in the same catagory as a dish washer. Sounds crazy but true. It's one of those things you can go without forever but once you've had one you're stuck and can't do without. (Atleast in 99% of cases)

Being from the great state of Michigan....(huh?)......and, riding over 10K a year in the short riding span we have here, has taught me how to be one with the elements.A windshield makes for a longer and, more pleasant period of time. I still don't like its look on the bike however.
