Cee Bailey Euro
Put the 14" Euro on the other night. Love it. I wanted to stay as short as possible for looks. Wind just catches the top of my head now. Much better than the Kury Airmaster Sport that I had on before and almost as cool looking.
A good compromise. All in all I'm happy.

Guy's thanks for the comps. I can't take credit for the bike since I bought it the way you see it here (other than the new windshield of course). To be honest, I wasn't thrilled about the paint in the beginning. A little too colorful for me, but I got a good deal on the bike so I figured what the hell, I can always change the paint later. Others seem to like it though and I get a lot of compliments on it. Not in the budget right now to repaint, so I'll live with it for awhile.
I'm 5'10" but have short legs (30" inseam) so I am kind of longer from the waste up then maybe others that are 5'10". I think a 15" (as Cee Baily recommends for someone my height) would have been perfect as far as completely deflecting the air up over my head. I do ride kind of "slumped" a little bit as opposed to sitting straight up, and when I sit straight up, I do catch a little more air (not enough to bounce my glasses around). But, If I would have went an inch higher with a 15", I think the dark grey tint would be too dark, and light grey would be better with the higher shields. Right now I can see fine above the shield while riding flat and straight. Going up a steep hill, I'm more looking through the shield unless I "sit up tall" which is easy to do if needed. You can still see through the dark grey, so it's not too dark. But it does take a little getting used to. I'm sure in short order I'll be completely used to it. By the way I've had it on the freeway at about 90 or so with no "flutter". Good quality windshield!!
