Windshield suggestions for a 2010 Street Glide
#11
I have to throw in another plug for Long Ride Shields, I have their 9 inch flat top Ultra Shield in dark tint and it's perfect. My stock seat was modified by MCC and sits me lower 1", I'm 5'11 and I can see right over the shield. I have the best gas mileage with this shield and it protects me better than the other shields I have tried, and it looks good to boot.
They make many different types of shields, check them out.

Rode my first Street Glide today and found the helmet buffeting was a real pain. Judging from lessons learned on my Fatboy Lo, I'm thinkin' that most of the buffeting is coming from below. On my windshield equipped Lo , I installed the fork mounted deflectors (dragons teeth) and it made a HUGE difference.

Check out this site, they are wider.... www.customflhtwindshields.net
Just figure the height you need and style. Highly recommended.

With the original short windshield the turbulences / buffeting was terrible.
With the klockwerk, the turbulence starts at 120 km/h compared to 80 km/h.. That's a huge difference.
Yesterday i cruised at 140 to 160 km/h , just sitting a bit lower than usual and everything was fine .
Next steps are the triple tee lower fork deflector ( 25 usd Kuriakin ) and the SG side fork deflector ( chrome plated 129 usd ) .
