I too have tried several shields the past few years but I pretty much just stick with one.

Have the stock SG Windshield, it lives in one of your boxes in my garage.

Have an LRS Flat Top, 8" I tried but got too much "backdraft", so it is living in a box right now, also.

Have an LRS Ultra recurve, 9" that I use for long trips, it's good for rain and throws the air a little better for the passenger.

Have an LRS Ultra recurve, 6" that I use most of the time for general use, but it has some strange stress cracks starting in it, not around the boltholes but up a little higher. I am going to send you pics soon so you can see them when I pull it off.

Will have an LRS Ultra recurve, 7" as soon as it arrives, which should be any day now, it will replace the 6" as my everyday shield ......

Sweet, so many answers already! I'm one of those people that changes windshields a lot too, granted I have a little extra access to shields, but I wanted to see how many people go through the whole bit of changing shields for different rides... Keep em coming! you're helping me with my little research project!
