I use the Long Ride recurve windshield and like it a lot. I am not worried about some degree less of impact resistance as I rode naked bikes all my life. Wimpshields are still new to me.

Long Ride is a forum sponsor. Just click their link on the right side. The regularly run sales also.

Great Info so far, I'll check out the other manufacturers. I've used several of the recurve shields on my Street Glides and they seem to work as advertised.

I'm running a Clearview with a recurve. The recurve gives you more leeway with the height by directing the air flow higher so you can run a shorter shield. Quality and fit you couldn't ask for better.

17" is listed on their site and you can get the recurve on any shield.
