BadX, the roadglide.org cannot be accessed by us normal people. I tried to sign up there a few days ago and it refused to play with me at all. I sent an e-mail to the site admin using the provided link and have not received any answer at all. I have come to the conclusion that membership is at its maximum and they simply do not want any new members. I ride a 2011 FLTRU but do not seem to be welcome there. What do you know about it that I do not?

OK, so here we go. My 2011 FLTRU in blue is mostly stock but I am messing with the windshileld. As a 5'10" person with a very short inseam of only 29 or 30 inches I found that the stock windshield top ran right through my main sight lines. I ordered the Cee Bailey 15 inch, nominally for someone a bit taller than I am, and it fits me just right but my better half is complaining that it allows air to batter her right after it leaves me alone. Is there a truly perfect windshield that not only accommodates the rider but also accomodates the pillion? If so, I need to order it before we have real troubles around here. My "better half" is only so patient after all.

If your Cee Bailey Shield is a TRSSC (stepped shield like the Klockwerks) it wont work well for your passenger. All of the stepped type shields have more buffeting for the passenger in my experience and from what Ive read.

Try either the stock style Cee Bailey , Clearview or a Windvest
