looks like a normal shield to me, no recurve, or wind tunnel testing, and I agree way over priced

If your looking for a great windshield look at this:
http://clearviewshields.com/shop/product.php?id=11

They work for people who ride.
They may not look ricer like some of the other high tech lookin units out there that look good when parked.
These actually work.

I get a lot of buffetting on the top of my helmet despite what helmet I wearing. It feels like it just shakes my helmet. If I slouch down it isn't so bad. I have an '07 RKC and I am 6'1". Any suggestions on size and type of windshield to use. I wonder if the recurve on the stock height would be enough.

More than enough. I have a 8" and am going with a 6.5" it works so well.
