6'0" and I'm on a --- WTF is it called...? TallBoy seat. Puts me about an inch lower and back a whisker.

I bought mine almost 5 years ago too - I actually am just about to order a new one - windshields take a beating and this one is and has been ideal through nearly 82000 - I love it - i wanted to see one with the new low flat top and I like it - might go there we shall see - this one has definitely reduced and eliminated my wind buffeting issues for a long time.

I like the V stream because it's not as extreme as a klockwerks or LRS xtreme but doesn't look like your average shield. It also does I nice job with the air and works better than the 9 inch recurve shield I tried.


Small point but I noted the before and after passing lamp shots and that you had peaked bezels on the passing lamps its a look I hd on my old RK nd want to replicate, are these HD items????

Purchased a 7" LRS Ultra, but not sure of it. Feel like i get more air and buffetting than the stock 12". So I ordered a 9" LRS Ultra Flat Top and some LRS Hawg Wings. Hopefully coming tomorrow. Also getting some Airlite Engine Gaurd Chaps. Hopefully all this will make it better. We'll see...



I like the height (looking over it) just not the wind!
