I don't have a buffeting problem, its more so a cant hear the radio problem & with the cold weather on the horizon, an want to stay warm problem.

Try the hd road glide air deflectors. Honestly I noticed a big difference in the radio volume and the wind in the face. I have a 13" freedom and the two together work great for me. I am 6'1" with 34 inch inseam. I have an ultimate seat that sits me about 1 inch higher than the stock seat so shield height should be same? I noticed a big change with the wind deflectors and re-routing air coming from the fuel tank. Good 35 dollar investment to at least trying it before trying a new shield. It takes the air from the tank and pushes it straight up making it seem like the shield is higher. I look way over my 13" and I feel like I'm in a cage with the windows down. Clean pocket of air, no buffering. It's been in the low to mid forties here lately on the coast and I am comfortable in a fleece riding to work.

I got the HD 15" wind splitter after a ride in the rain. Not sure if the size and name are right. It's the tallest they had.
It did ok but still got a lot of bugs on the forehead.
In Sturgis I got the 14" windvest and really like it freeway riding I can put in a dip of Copenhagen.
That said I think I might still try the KW just because I like the look.
Sorry no pictures.

I just got my 2015 road glide a week and a half ago and I am looking for windshields. I am looking at the freedom windshields and some of the owners of that brand are making the right noises about their product. about to throw the credit card number in now to place that order.
I am 6'4" tall and that stock "windshield" is doing absolutely zero for me. thinking about getting the 14" model. with the up turn in the shield, I think that will work just fine for me.
