I can only comment on my LRS Ultra with recurve. Shield works great and the price is great. I believe they still offer our membership a 20 discount. You'll be happy with it if you get the right size.

I bought my bike with the stock 12"...bought some 10".....and just changed out that 10" for a Harley 10" wind splitter. I noticed the differance with the wind splitter....back seater not-so-much.
12 " was too high...10" inch fine for my 5' 10" frame.

I have the FastAire aero 9" in light gray tint. It works great for me! I originally bought the 8", but it didn't block enough wind, so I exchanged it for the 9". FastAire will let you swap it out once without any trouble. You just have to pay the shipping to return it (via USPS about $8.00). Very easy company to do business with and a great product!

I went with the fastaire 6 inch, I am 5'10 see over it very well, I think the 8 would be to tall for me, cost 27.00 great deal. 2011 ULTRA. Thanks.

Thanks everyone for your input. I tried a Klockwerks 8" light tint, the size I think is about right. The only thing I did not like was the curve design of the windshield. Every time I would look down to the road it would be a distorted view, which got to be a headache. It looks like the design of the curve on the LRS and Fastaire are more to the top and not in the middle. Anyone have any problems looking down at the road. Still undecided if I should go with light tint or clear. Anyone have trouble with their Fastaire breaking on the edges. I was told that you have to bend it to fit your around your fairing.

Bending it is a non issue. I have a custom that is flat and it installs very easily.
