Windshield for Memphis Batwing
What's the best windshield for a Memphis Batwing? I was using the LRS 18" on the regular HD brackets (Road King), I measured for the batwing at 10", LRS recommended going to a 11". Wind hits right about my upper lip, lots of wind, road noise and helmet lift. I had none of this with the regular windshield. Is the clearview any better, or should I stick with the MS and forget the up flip? The faring was great this morning, just need to figure out the windshield.

Did some adjustments, so far a lot better. The brackets have 2 adjustments one vertical and one for tilt. I had it at the lowest height, and tilted back. Looks the best, I raided it up to the highest position which gives about 1" between headlight and faring, rode home from work, a lot better, but still some wind and buffeting, tilted it forward (now windshield is more vertical), a lot better, only get the wind on the back of my hands, not on fingers, and almost all the buffeting is gone, rode to work about 50 miles today, took the highway 55 to 65 mph. Felt pretty good, a little higher windshield might even be better.
