Default Windshield Advice

What up fellas? I'm really enjoying the new SG. The guys at the HD shop were great and they threw in a 7 inch Wind Splitter, which in my estimation, isn't much use. I've seen a couple of the Long Ride Shields around and they look pretty good. The quality looks far better than the HD shields. I'd love to see some pics, and hear about your choices in windshields. Thanks again guys.

Great shields. I have a 8" on my ultra. Their customer service is amazing also.

I have a 9" WindVest with flare and I love it. 5'10" and very little buffeting.

I have a 7" National Cycle VStream windshield, that works great on my 07 Street Glide.

Recently switched from a 7" HD Windspliter to a 7" LRS Ultra recurve. Best move I've made in a while.

You can compare it next to my buddies wind splitter

I have a few different brands. All were good with each one having something I just dd not like. Currently have the LRS flat top. I really like this one. Just finished an Atlanta to LA run and it was great! But if I would have got the same windshield in a different size I may feel different! Make sure you properly fit it for your needs!
