Marvo... appreciate the compliment. The shield is a 10" Windvest in gunsmoke. Very sturdy shield and it blocks the wind for me (5'8 180 pounds, 30" inseem), without looking like a beast of a thing sticking off the front.

Just to clarify on the bottoming out. My rear is stock RGC height which is 12". Inch to inch and a half lower than older models. But at stock RGC i have nevre bottomed out, even with a passenger on the rear. Can't say i would if i lwered the rear. If i lowered the rear it wouod be with air rides to be able to raise it on the fly. Mine is at or over 2.5 lower in the front with no issues at all.
