I have a street glide with the stock 4 in windshield, I bought a 9 in smoke because I got tired of eating bugs. (Darn Buffalo Knats) Prob. is at night I have trouble seeing the first 20 feet in fromt of me. I was thinking about putting a 6.5 in Kloc on, does anyone have one on theirs, have pics, and how do you like it????
Wouldn't get rid of my 6.5 KW for anything else I have tried yet. Really cool when you see the bug coming and the boom it gets directed over your head.
I'm 5'5" and have a 6-1/2" Dark Smoke Klock Werks Flare on my bike and LOVE it! I get hit with bugs every now and then with it but for the most part the shield does a great job at throwing them over my helmet. Although this might be right in the face of a taller rider.
Any dealer who sells KW Flares should have several demos in stock for you to test out so I would do some calling around in your area and go that route, this way you guarantee you are getting what will work best for you.
BTW...the picture is actually a 6-1/2" tint demo...as mentioned, I ended up going with the dark smoke.
