RKC Windshield

A few months ago I bought a Road King, my first scooter with a windshield. I thought the windshield would spend most of it's time off the bike. Wrong - with the exception of one short ride, I have kept the windshield on the scooter, I really like the thing. What about you?

I used to ride a softail custom and I didn't even have a windshield. Now I have a Road King Classic and although I think it looks best without a windshield, I almost never ride with it off. Having a windshield makes the ride much more enjoyable IMO.

Off 99% of the time. although the 12" tinted I bought as soon as i got the bike did come in handy on the 5 hr 300+ mile 1 way trip last weekend. Kept the wind off the body pretty good.
