I can’t handle windshields on motorcycles

Interesting....... A full face helmet makes me feel like I'm on a hard hat dive...
I'll take a windshield, over a full face helmet, any day........
I do have one bike (FXSTS) without a windshield and it is refreshing to ride, even on the freeway.... but I don't do multiple 500 mile days on it....

I've been riding a lot around the Kansa City area and it's frikin windy. I tried several windshields and moving them up and down but could never find the 'sweet' spot. In short, the last year I've been riding with no shield and it's ok. I've gotten used to being blown around the highway and that took about a year and a half. If I did long rides it would be different but for under an hour, leave the shield at home.

I’ve driven north on ca1 from Santa Cruz past Napa, (against the wind on California coast)... and S/W through the narrow pass by Gilroy into Watsonville,... those two spots without a windshield literally wore me out and blew my helmet off... I’ve learned to check wind patterns before rides and plan accordingly,.. for me the buffering of windshield jacks up my vision, freaks me out, I’d rather plan around the high winds, I can’t really explain why, I just know
