Default Windvest shield
Just put my new Windvest 14"smoked windshield on. I cant believe the difference it makes from a 10" shield. I can finally hear the new Kicker speakers I just put in.

I have the 12inch on my Road Glide. I love it. Been thinking about the 14 for the colder months

I just put the 6" with recurve on. Amazingly I have a lot less wind than the stock 08 shield. I dig it!

I bet it looks good too. I changed my stock 09 RG windshield to the Windvest 14" and love it.

I have a 9" windvest w/recurve and a Mustang solo on my SG, best windshield I've had so far. If you have a batwing and are looking to save money take a look at Long ride shields Ultra flip, about 1/2 the price.

I am 5'11", riding a 2009 Road Glide and have the sundowner deep bucket seat. I can still see over the shield.
