Default 12" Wind Splitter on 2012 FLTRX

So after 6 motnhs and almost 5k miles of the stock shield, I finally upgraded. I'm 5'10", 32" inseam, 32/33 sleeve, stock seat. Personally. I LOVE the new shield. Slight buffeting @ eye level, but not enough to move my glasses. I wear an Outlaw AX30030 half helmet, which previously would try and slide back on my head >65mph, but no more. Cruised up to 85mph w/ no movement. Music from stock speakers was MUCH clearer behind the new shield. Coming off a 09 Nightster which beat me up from the nipple line up, this is a huge improvement. Still get some wind, but no longer feel like I'm being pushed off the bike constantly. If you are looking for no wind, this is not the shield for you. If you like the wind in your face, but not fighting to stay attached to the bike, then I highly recommend it. Install took less than 10 minutes taking my time and being VERY careful. Now for PICS:
