I just purchased another windshield from LongRideShields. This time I went with a dark 9" LRS Stealth. I went out for a ride this afternoon and I am very, very pleased. I experienced very little wind buffeting and a nice pocket of silence behind the screen. Finally, I've found a windshield that looks cool, provides good protection and I don't feel like a bobble head from my noggin bouncing in the wind.
I purchased my LRS screen on-line with a 25% discount that knocked the price down to @ $60.00. That's less than half of what I paid for my previous Klock Werks windshield and I think the quality of my LRS is even better. The screen material of the LRS is also thicker than the Klocks screen. I purchased my screen on a Wednesday evening and it was at my door Saturday morning; excellent service!
BTW, the windshield is mounted on my 2012 Ultra Limited. It is so much better than the stock screen and my previous much more "expensive" Klocks windshield. I seldom if ever give a recommendation, but if you are looking around for a new windshield for your HD, definitely consider LRS.
I ordered the 10 inch dark stealth for my road glide on Monday, recieved it on Wednesday and was finally able to take a ride today. I had no buffetting at all and could hear my radio just fine at 70 mph. I recommend LRS too, I paid $100 delivered. Beats the price that other places wanted.
Made a mistake --- I have the dark Phantom, not the stealth

Reason: Correction
I've got a 10" light tint stealth on the way. Ordered it on Friday and I'm looking forward to trying it out. I'll be making the switch from a 8.5" Klockwerks. Do you wear a helmet and what type? 1/2, 3/4, full?

I wear a 3/4 helmet. I also installed the plastic wind deflector that HD sells. I think that makes a difference too.
Maybe I need to try try the LSR, I have an 8.5 klockwerks and it seems like more wind noise than my bob with no windshield. I do wear a full face helmet but I can't hear the radio even with the j&m250 watt amp and 7.25 speakers. I'm glad I didn't get rid of my street bob
the rear shocks and seat suck on the sg.

Just ordered the same one. Thanks for your recommendations!
What type and size was your previous LRS screen? I have the ultra, looking at the stealth and curious if I should order the same size.
