After mounting the WV, in line with the forks, I went on a run. Lotsa buffeting at 60mph, so I pulled over and whipped out the allen wrench to adjust the shield to a more upright position. Better but my eyes were still buzzing. Called the company to ask if a different set of clamps would help. They won't. One problem is that the shield will only go so far until it bottoms-out on the headlamp assembly. Doug at WV suggested a 16" shield and he will shave off .5" from the bottom for clearance at the headlight. The 16" shield has more height adjustment holes (4) than the 14" does (3). I shipped my new 14" to WV and Doug will send the longer shield with .5" shaved off the bottom. WV is doing this for me as a customer good-will gesture. How 'bout that? Gotta like that in a company! Will follow up when appropriate.

Dave, I have the Spitfire on my Fat Bob. I was looking for something compact that would take off some wind pressure on the chest. It has done that. I haven't been on any long trips, but so far I'm happy. We've been having crazy 30-40mph winds since the install and they're mostly from the side on my daily commute, so that makes it hard to give a 100% review. That being said, the little rascal was about $80 delivered. I've had bad steaks that were about that much. Here's a shot of what it looks like installed.
Install was about 10 mins, takes under a minute to remove it.

Can't believe I remembered that....Can't even remember what I had for breakfast this morning, or if I even had breakfast. Guess I only remember the important **** anymore.
