Here are some of the clear extra wide as promised. The above comments reflect my view as well. Quite a quality shield!

It looks like that extra width would keep the wind from hitting you in the face and shoulders too. Am I right?

On this shield yes, not quite as much on my 6" Touring wide. I have 2 Freedoms, 6" and 10". The 10" is the one in the photos. I use it for **** poor weather and when with the wife. It comes just to eye level for me but it is nice to reduce the rain and wind on cold and wet rides. These swap out so easy in less then 3 minutes. I am considering getting the 8" so I have a selection based on ride, length and weather.

These are nicer then any shield I have seen when it comes to quality and clarity.

Thanks for the feedback gents.

Any issues with hitting/rubbing the fairing? I read one of the earlier reviews that said they were having that problem. Maybe early production issue?

No issue at all. Rode all day today 40mph winds and not one issue with rubbing the fairing.

Thanks, that will be my next shield. I have the 6" and the 10" so the 8" will fill out my needs for different rides.
