Question Road Glide custom shields

I know most people are looking for shields that are stylish and have wind protection. Klockwerks did a great job on the looks department but the wind noise can be a little brutal. I read they were coming out witha 16 inch shield to address those issues. Unsure if that is fact or fiction. Now I see someone else has cloned there idea.

anyone try the taller verson yet?

Very nice! I'm half tempted to try one! Prices aren't too bad either.
Wonder how their largest shield compares to the stock FLTR windshield?

(Now I see the stock is 15" and their tallest is only 15" too)

Mrs. Santa ordered me a Clearview +1" and I think that will likely be "a keeper"....

The 15" looks very interesting, and the pictures on the website make me think that it's a little taller than the 12" Klock Werks. I had the Klock Werks and found it unsuitable for touring, but really liked it around town. The CeeBaileys 15" might be a good solution. For comparison, here are a couple of pics of the 12" Klock Werks.

Is it me or does the picture looked photoshopped. The lowers look like the factory vented one from on the new ultras. I didnt think those would fit with the road glide fairing. I got the older lowers, hope I didnt miss out.

No but I'm sure I will. I have the KW 12" smoked - like most say, great for short trips, pretty loud on the long haul. I'd like to use it for my trip to Sturgis next year but...

I have the KW's Flair and at 6'2" it blocked air really well for a 12" but I couldn't get pass the wind noise above 55 it was brutal and I couldn't hear my radio above 55 and that was the deal breaker for me! BEST DAMN looking shield for a Road Glide I ever saw though! I had thought 3 more inchs higher would have worked wonders on the KW Flair so I might just have to give this one a try when the money allows.
