Default windshield for SG with 13" apes

Im looking for options to replace the klockwerks 8.5 flare i have on my SG with something little more straight. the current KW flare curves back and rests on my bars (rubs) and doesn't quite fit correctly. Im 6'5", so I need at least a 8.5" shield. Thanks

Many choices out there but I recommend Fast Aire's Aero windshield over the rest. The guy that owns it did all the design work & has loads of info about how to select this & that. I prefer the smaller guys over the mega million dollar companies just out to make a buck.

You can just roll your bars back a little so it doesn't hit/rub

I could but that kinda defeats the purpose of having higher bars. Again, I'm 6'5 with a sleeve length of 37. I need the reach.

Long Ride Shields works for me, and they have several models to choose from.
