Thanks for all of the info/opinions guys! From what I've been reading here, I think that I am going to go with a set of polarized sungalsses... Gonna look around at a few brands though. I like the Wiley-X Airrage with the blue polarized lenses. So, I'll see what other brands have to offer that are similar...
If nothing else, I enjoyed seeing all of your bikes with your posts!

Have a good weekend ya'll...

I like Maui Jim's for real bright sun but I now use 7eye glasses with the foam around the inside of the lens. They darken for day time use and are clear at night so you can wear the same glasses all the time. Great for those evenings when your riding and darkness falls upon ya. The Maui Jim's are still better in bright sun.....

I'm in the opinion put them on and sit on your bike and see how the view is. I wear polarized glasses in my car and the windshield is fine, but i do notice on side windows and cars other rear windows the windows are framed in squares. Just try them on and see what you think.

I wear hard contact lenses, so I always thought I'd have to wear a full face helmet.... until I tried out a pair of Oakley M Frames with the Heater lenses. They wrap around my face, fit awesome, and protect my eyes. I've got blue iridium lenses for everyday riding and clear lenses for night. The best glasses I've ever owned.

oakleys. best way to go for me. The thing is, i had to try them over and over again to decide what fit the best, not what looked the best.

I use a pair of cheap Calcutta Steelhead sunglasses that I got at a bait shop in Destin, FL. They fit my face really well and keep almost all of the wind out of my eyes. They are polarized, too. After being spoiled by wearing polarized sunglasses for so long, I HAVE to have polarized at all times. I've never ridden with a windshield, so I can't speak on that. You can get them for $13.99 online at: http://www.theozarksource.com/servle...GLASSES/Detail. They even have little skulls and crossbones to go with the played out Harley theme! haha
