Mine is always off. Not sure it will even fit with my apes.

Never ride with mine. Got a 12" tinted that i bought when i got the bike, but that hasn't made an appearance since the first few rides. also got the standard clear from the dealer. All they do is collect dust.

That's why I loved my '99 RK, had the windshield, fairing or nothing.

100% on...
I'd rather be riding comfortable @ 70-80 then lookin' "cool" with it sitting still.
Sure does look better with it off IMHO.
Just sayin'...

Most of the time, it is on. With half-helmet, I find the wind noise over 30mph too much annoying. Even with ear plugs.

Who is this Dennis Kirk and why does he mean to harm your shield?
