The Everything 2018+ Heritage Thread
#2651
I have 2019 Heritage 114 and love this bike too. I changed the windshield and bought ClearView windshield 18’’GT with curve and vent. It’s great, the wind goes over my head and just starts
touching the top of my helmet where the vent is. Wind buffering is pretty much gone. One thing, it doesn’t protect your hands from the elements.
I’ve been thinking about getting the reckless batwing but not sure how much hand protection it will provide. JES Customs is designing hand wind deflectors for our 18+ heritage. I’ve been in contact with him and his first design needs to be modified a little to achieve total protection. JES customs makes the lower wind deflectors that mount on your forks. They are great removing the up draft buffering. His hand protectors are designed for easy removal for the warmer weather.
Go to his web site and contact him and he will keep you updated on this new product. JESCustoms.com

I think more don't complain because it seems to only be an issue with those who ride with a full face helmet AND a windshield. I ride with a half helmet and, yeah, there's some wind coming up from below the windshield, but it's not annoying at all until I'm over 90 MPH, and I never ride that fast.

I must be lucky. I've had dozens of motorcycles through he years, mostly HDs and the only time I ever experienced buffeting was when I wore a cheap, loose-fitting half helmet. I left that helmet on a bench somewhere and have never had a problem since, with or without a windshield, with or without a helmet. I usually ride with apes.

(with other Senas, never tried to connect with Cardo users).
Now I am wondering if I should have purchased the Shoei Neotech-II....

I look at helmets like a pair of shoes. A quality helmet is essential in my view. Depending on the shape of your head, what ever quality helmet you end up with, that FITS you correctly, you’re good to go.
I had Sena and when I hooked up with this riding group they all had Cardo. I have to say, my personal opinion, Cardo is a better system. I love the voice control with the Cardo. When I had Sena, they didn’t offer ( I believe) voice control. The upgrade JBL speakers are very good. I think in the last year Sena upgraded their speakers.
Ya know, if your happy with what you have, that’s what matters.

research and I agree, everyone says the Cardo is better. But unless everyone uses it (which
here in DFW they do not) it's just alot easier to "conform".
