I like these shields, they come in clear but they are paintable they come in any size you can think of. They cost 65.00

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.

Firemedic you got any pics. I was thinking of going from the re-curve to the flattop, but wonder how it will look.

Thanks!

The windshield is only half the problem. You need a pair of fangs on your forks (fork deflectors). My Clearview 8" with recurve combined with the fangs effectively kills all the buffeting. I could smoke a cigar while cruising at freeway speeds.
