With all their problems lately, I would avoid Long Ride Shields until they get their act together. Otherwise, give Freedom Shields a try.

I never had a problem with Long Ride Shields. I know a lot of people complained that their customer service sucks, but Just saying, no Problem. Plus they have shields already made on the shelves to order, so you don't have to wait for a wind shield to be made. Or you can go with a Klock Werks or any other brand. I had 2 Klock Werks and 2 Long Ride Shields, both are great

I have an almost brand new dark smoke Clockworks 8.5" Flare that I just pulled off of my new to me 14 SGS because it was just a tad too tall for this little squatty body. I liked the wind flow, I just had a hard time seeing over it. Haven't listed it in the classifieds yet. $110 shipped.

Most excellent product.

I just put on a 10" Freedom Shield and this is the first time I've been able to get rid of 100% of the buffetting.

Thanks for all the great advice and comments. One last thing I have narrowed my choices down to the Freedom shield or the Long Ride Shield.

So, In saying that I would like to ask which one ya'll would suggest?

Thanks again,
