KlockWerks Flare is the way to go, once you figure out which model and height you want I would say go for it. They are noticeably better then stock.

I've run Klock weeks shields on my last few bikes, I keep going back to them. I tried a different brand on my new one, and returned it and bought another KW.

Great shields, great customer service, great company.

I have found that the flare windshields measure about an inch taller than advertised when installed on the fairing. I run the 8" on my EG and it measures 9" from the fairing to the top of the shield. I'm 6' tall and it's perfect for me.

I have been running the KW 5" dark smoke on my 15 SGS for a few months. And love it!

I bought one at Sturgis for my Street Glide and am happy with it. They let me drive away with it and told me test it out. They didn't know me from Adam.

I am currently using a 10" recurve WS from LRS along with the JES fork mounted wind deflectors on my 2012 Ultra Limited. My height is 6'1'. The windshield works well up to around 65mph. Any faster and I start to get buffeting from the top of my helmet. Do you think the KW shield will give any better protection than what I am using now? Thanks
