I bought mine a couple years ago when they were just getting going, and bought 2 of em for like $50 each. They don't make the ones that I bought from them anymore. They are the "Classic" have just a tad of a bit of a recure at the top.
Glad I am only on the first one.

I have Wind-Vest shields that work good (8" and 9") but you know how most of us are, always looking for the ultimate. I called LRS and mentioned what I had and they said theirs would absolutely out perform Wind-Vest (re-curve) so I got excited, swallowed the BS and purchased the same height as my windvest.
Bottom line, the Wind-Vest was the hands down winner! The LRS created buffeting on the top of my helmet. I added it to my collection of discarded parts.

LRS is a good outfit, he's true to his word.
Give him a call, screw facebook.
Noticed several comments in another thread about packaging of the shields, but no actual complaints about the condition of the shields when received.
IMHO, LRS's packaging works just fine.
LRS is what it says it is.

I have bought 3 Long Ride Shields for My Ultra. Went to the facebook page yesterday and they had a banner that said $79.99, then a discount code for 30% off. When I clicked the link to buy, because I am not going to pass up 30% off. the price in the link was $89.99. When I brought it up yesterday, instead of addressing it, they deleted the post. So I posted today asking why they didn't address my question..and they deleted it again without addressing it. Looks like they just lost a customer! All they would have had to say was hey, we F**d up and that would have been that. But they chose to ignore it and delete it. I figured I would vent here since they can't delete this.
Yes they can, they are a sponsor. I've seen it happen before, all they have to do is ask for it to be deleted and it will be.

I have had some good dealings and some bad dealings with this company. I am still not sure what I think...I know Clearview is pretty good though...I am not sure what I will do next time...
