I have the Flat top. It made a big difference in the air thrown back at my wife. She was very pleased with the change. I however think that in real heavy wind it kind of smashes into the wind rather then cut through it.. Makes it rough handling and the front end feels squirrelly. I had a 6 inch Klock Werks that I loved but it beat the hell out of my wife. I am also thinking of going with the Wind Blade as it looks like it would cut the wind pretty good. I am thinking of a 7 inch wind blade. My Flat Top is an 8 but I should have gone with the 7. By the end of the day I am a little slumped in the saddle and the top is in my sight line.

6" recurve to a 7" windblade to a 9" flat top, then back to the blade.
As the title states I tried a few. Just recently did a 5,000 mile ride, so I decided on the 9" flat top. I liked the looks and wind blockage. But @ 5'8" a bit to tall. I decided to go back to the 7" blade. I agree with the flat top pushing threw the wind. The blade just feels better. As for pictures, I took picts with the recurve & the blade and its hard to tell any difference.
