Klock Works Shields

Where can I get a Klock Works demo wind shield to try. I was at my local stealer and tried what they had..nothing appealed to me. My height is 5'6...2012 EG
My location is PA. 1 hour from Harrisburg..1 hour from Phila.

It's been two years, but I tested a KW at Battlefield Harley in Gettysburg. Ended up buying it but have since sold it and got a LRS. Call them and see if they still have demo Klock Werks.

It would be a wait, but I have seen them at Carlisle bikefest. Been a few years since I've been there so not sure if they still go.

Depending on the terrain I find myself looking down thru the shield when cresting a hill and the curve really distorts your vision. And then at night it really limits the amount of the road that's clearly visible which really annoys me. I ended up taking it off this week and went back to my 7" LRS because that 1.5" really makes a big difference. But there is also a big difference in wind protection between the 7" LRS and the 8.5" KW. I had planned on replacing the seat soon with something more suited for touring which will most likely raise me up some so I will put the KW back on with the new seat and see if that will move the top edge further down away from my sight line.
