Klock Werks Windshield ??
Does anyone have one of these on there SG or RG, I have a 6 inch on the bike now and i am getting a lot of buffering from the wind and what i have read the Klock Werks is 6 1/2 but its supposed to give more down force and less turbulence around the fairing. The price is a little high for it. Any suggestions???

I bought the Klock Werks 6.5 in for my EGS and had it on for 1 day. I loved the look but it cause buffetting for me that was very bad at 45 and 60 mph. These 2 speeds happen to be where most of my riding is done. I am 6'1" tall and the head buffetting/vibration was unacceptable to me. If they had an 8" one I would get it.

I have one on mine and really like it, it smokes the 4" that I was running. If you don't want any wind just get a 8" or 10". I laugh every time this comes up, you can't expect a 6" windsheild to block as much wind as the stock EG windsheild. The downforce it adds is very noticeable, I ride the interstate to work and at 70+ the bike is a lot more stable with the Klockwerks and it looks awesome.

I swear by My Klock Werks windshield! I really think it depends on how tall you are. And as far as negative reviews...well you can find something to like or dislike abotu anything. It's all about personal preference and your experiences vs. what you're looking for in a product! Ride safe...Mike

I usually wear ear plugs to drown out the wind. I doesn't offer much weather protection either. This time of year, I run the tall stock shield anyway. I'm sure I'll learn to appreciate the KW when the weather warms here.
