Never heard of a windshield bag being a cure for buffeting. Maybe that's why we don't have any to speak of. But I doubt it.

I suspect it's more a matter of how we define buffeting and what we're used to. Sure I get air coming over and under the shield. Sometimes it's tugs at my helmet, sometimes it moves my head about a bit. But I just see that as part of riding a cruiser and I don't think there's any mod that I can do that's going to significantly reduce it.

I'd be interested in how your search for a solution goes.

BTW, I highly recommend Foxcreek or Chilhowee windshield bags. Much better quality than Harley. I have the FC, wife has the Chilhowee. No significant difference between the two.
