Default Windvest or Klock Werks?
I need a shorter windshield for my ultra (stock). I have only seen the Windvest and Klock Werks windshields in the JP cat. Has anyone got pictures of one or both of these windshields on the bike? Or if anyone has a preference please let me know.

Thanks

I have the KLockwerks on my Street Glide and like it. Looks good. Still alot of wind though.

Do you have the Flare or the regular shield? I had heard that the flare was supposed to eliminate the wind!

look at CEE BAILYS i got a 12 inch black for my 09 Street Glide and it helps alot with the wind/turbulance, also it will end up being the same height as a 9 inch because of the way its curved....and it looks good flows with the shape of the fairing

I run a 8 1/2 inch Clearview with the recurve and love it! Still some buffeting but nothing like the stock shield.

I have the flare. It doesn't eliminate the wind. It is a light, clean wind if that makes since.

I put a 8 1/2 inch recurve flair on my 05 EG. It's the best thing I've put on the bike. I can wear a ball cap at low to moderate speeds without loosing it.

Take a look at the Clearview shields with the recurve. Less money and more protection. Cee Baileys would be my 2nd choice.

Default CEE Bailys quality is not even close to either a Klock Werks or Windvest
I had all these windshield and the recurve Cee Baliey is crap...
Both Klock Werks and Windvest are much better. My Cee Baliey was off center on the bend and logo and it bobs as you drive down the freeway.
