Looks okay, but kind of pricey. I have a full Woody's faring on my King and am very happy with it. If you want something smaller, I guess this would do the trick, but I'll keep my full fairing.

A friend of mine has one of those on his RK. He likes it and it looks good on his bike. But then again, he like the taste of bugs.

I like our RKC's in large because they are "Classic." If anything I like adding things to make them more retro.

But different strokes for different folks is makes life so interesting.

Well,that's what I was wondering about,if that flip up at the top re directs a lot of the wind. How it compairs to a standard RK windshield.

That lip won't keep the bugs out of the face, and it will still hurt when they smack you. I've had the Bob Dron by Arlen Ness and the Corbin with the swoop that imply's that the bugs and wind will go over your head, and it didn't, and the best for protection is the bat wing. I would also do the stereo, but that is me. I still have the first 2 in my garage, collecting dust,
it's your bike, do what makes you happy.
