Wind Buffeting Free Wheelers
#11
if you look around, the FW has diff height shields, and you should find the shortest one that fits you (about the tip of your nose)
a taller shield becomes more of a sail.
I do not think your shield is adjustable, because of the rounding at the bottom. IDK those slots are for diff heights?

Have a freewheeler with a 16" windshield. Get buffeting to the top 3 or 4 inches of my helmet. Moving my hand around can feel where it's coming over the top of the windshield. Ordered a 20" LRS, hope that will take care of it.
Has anyone experienced wind buffeting on there free wheelers? I just bought a 2017 and love it. I had a 14 fat boy lo that I also experienced wind buffeting and cured it with HD front end wind deflectors which worked. The windshield on the trike looks like it can go up and down but before I go there looking for help from you all. Adam in Daytona

Good news, bad news type of thing. The taller shield took care of the buffeting to the top of my helmet. But, now I can feel some buffeting to the sides of my helmet. Haven't explored where that is coming from.
