Default Vstream Ultra Low

Well trying out my 5th windshield so far and think I might be done.

I liked my 8 inch LRS EXtreme but it was a little to tall.

The Vstream came in today after ordering it on sunday. So they shipped quick but I received no communtication from them which I found odd but guess it really doesnt matter.

Shield seems to be high quality and after a short test ride I think I got a keeper. Its seems to work just a little better than my Xtreme on the interstate and is much better on the backroads since it is shorter and I can see over it better.

The Vstream measures at 6 3/4 above the fairing were the 8 inch Xtreme was a touch over 8 inchs.

I like the looks as it isnt as wild as the Xtreme but still looks more sporty than a regular style shield. Think it looks similar to the windsplitter but is taller.

So far I am happy but will pass judgement after I get a all day ride in.

It's a nice looking windshield. We'll look forward to a later update after an all day ride.

Enjoy.

I've got one on me '09 EGC, I wear a full face helmet and it works great. Clear view of the road and almost no wind noise.

I've had a few Vstreams, usually in the morning after sex.

That looks really nice on your bike.
I'd been waiting to see if someone would get one and do an article on it.
Neat.

I havent got to do a full day of riding yet but have got to put a few hundred miles with it here and there including a 100 mile ride with the last 30 miles in the rain.

I like the shield a lot and plan on keeping this one. Its the perfect hieght for me and works great on the backroads at 65 to 70 MPH. I still get a little glasses shaking on the interstate at 75+ plus but it isnt to bad and no worse than any other shield I have tried.

I leave for a Milwaukee trip in a couple weeks so I will get a good test of it then.
