I ordered the 8" one as well. Look forward to get it and see how it works.

Thumbs up

I too was a tester, and I must say that I love both of mine!!!! I have two, the 8 in ultra that's on now, and the 7 in xstream 2.0 that's for warmer climate. Love them both! If I could change anything it would be to try to get a tint closer to the stock 4 in. street glide for the dark tint and keep the same hue on the rest of the tinted shield's. Meaning more of a polarized sun glasses tint, not the brownish tint that's on there now, and go a shade lighter for the light tint. But I am not complaining. Just sayin. Thanks Matt, Alaster, and Wilma. They have all been great! Keep up the good work!!

I had the 8" and because I have a tall torso it put the wind right at my eyes. Wouldn't work at all. I was running a stock seat at this time. I have since went to a Tallboy seat and your 6" Ultra Flipup. Now I am good. I would go back to try out the X stream again but not sure if I will. I am guessing I would have to try a few different sizes to see if they will work. Our wind in ND gets pretty rough.

Wasn't suggesting you take the side bends out, just curious what it would be like if they were less bent.

I'm a happy camper.....

I'd like to see less of a bend on the x-stream 3.0. I liked the way the 2.0 was made. In my first post I said I had the xstream 2.0, but it is the 3.0 which I think is the latest version. I also mentioned a brownish tint. That is only on the x not the ultra. The ultra tint is fine.
