I have the Klockwerks already but when I installed my PYO 14" bars the shield will not go on the bike unless I pulled the bars back towards the rear. I don't like the look of the bars pulled back. I have a demo Windsplitter and will fit with my bars. Can't ride yet because the bike is still apart. I have 2 choices: Cut a notch out of the Klockwerks or just but the Windsplitter.
Here's a Klockwerks with the cut out:

From what I can tell windshields are different for everyone. Find a hundred people that like Klockworks and I can find a hundred that dont. I found the Windsplitter to be a POS compared to the Klockworks. Demo ride shields until you get the right match for you.

Windshield opinions are seriously like a-holes lol. Everyone's got one. I've used both that you mentioned and I personally liked the windsplitter better. I do have a Klockwerks 6.5 used in great condition if you went that way. PM me for details if you'd like. I'll give ya a good deal.
