Wife gets a little bit of wind depending on certain things (but nothing major). She usually keeps her face shield down because she wears contacts and the air dries them out. During the summer months I make sure she gets enough air to keep her comfortable though...by adjusting my front deflectors.

Of course, I'm 6'2" 300#"s, she's 5'5" 117#'s! That might make a bit of difference too! LOL!

I get none with 6" windshield, don't know if the wife does or not. She never says anything and I never ask.

When I had my Ultra I ran a 10" and she told me she never had a problem. I got rid of her anyway last August. Now she complains to our daughters she never gets any wind.

Can she see where you're going?!

I trimmed my own shield, having bought the largest stock one. Works for us and reduced the buffetting my wife gets.
