Default klockwerks windshield

Does anyone have any expierence with the 3 1/2 inch klockwerks windshield? I have the stock windshield on my streetglide and want to stay with a low shield and was wondering if the 3 1/2 klockwerks one does a better job with directing the wind over my head. I know that the 6 inch one works well but would like the shorter one. Thanks

I want to help but all I can say is simple physics won't allow a 3, 4, 5, or even 6" shield to direct the air up over my un-helmeted head. The 10" works perfectly but I can get by with a 9".

Doesn't Klockwerks have a new 8.5" shield? It looks pretty good if it's the one I'm thinking of.

I dont need it to get rid of all the wind ( isnt that why we ride in the first place) just like to cut it down a bit. I just think for my bike bigger shields dont look good on it.

I started with the 3.5 and went to the 6.5. Put the 3.5 on my buddies bike, who had the standard 3.5 straight up and he said he gets more air with the Klockwerks...IMO, I dont think there is enough height for it to work as I wished. Looks very cool though.
