FLTRU windshield options?
The stock windshield doesn't provide quite enough wind protection here in windy-*** Indiana so I'm looking for something taller (or simply better). Tried out the H-D Windsplitter as a demo from my dealer... Yeahhhh... that made things worse.
So I'm curious what windshields others have on their RG's and like.

I went with the F-4 18.5" tinted windshield. It's made out of Polycarbonate (Lexan) which has been scratch resistant for more than a year now. It even has rain shedding built into it.
It's an improvement over stock but not perfect. I prefer to look through a windshield.

LRS recure. I just went from an HD Windspliter and I don't know why I didn't do it sooner. They are a sponsor on the forum and offer forum members an additional 20% discount. You have to register an account on their site and then enter HDF20 in the coupon text box when ordering.

Cee Bailey folks: did you use their recommended size chart, or did you deviate from that and choose your own size?
I'm 5'8", so that puts me at a 14" shield according to their charts, and honestly that seems like it's gonna be too short to really provide any protection. So I'm curious.
gipper: not sure which size Windsplitter it is. They only have 2 for demo and I've got the larger of the 2. I'm definitely not looking THROUGH it - it's only about lip-level on me, if that. (And I'm only 5'8"...)
