:i con_fryingpan:Why do you think the RK has a windshield from the beginning? You ain't the first guy to ride a bike.

If you don't want to get a windshield you should consider the triple tree deflector and possibley the downtube (or walrus teeth) deflectors. They might help some? But I think the walrus tooth deflectors look like butt. I really don't think headlight rings or visors will really do much however.

Yeah, I agree. I absolutely can't handle riding mine without the shield. You afraid somebody might think you are un-cool with a shield?

plus riding with no windshield is just asking for trouble, have seen many posts on here where the windshield saved somebody from getting hit by something, and if you have your kids on the back, there would be no way I would have any of my kids on my bike with no windshield.
