    Inbetween Sizes

    I've been running the 16 inch Klokwerks Flare but find it too tall. Prior I had the 14 inch, too short. Any advice?

    I know guys who have cut their windshields down with good success but I'd probably give the job to a shop that has some experience with things like this. Just an idea for the 16" shield you have.

    Yep! That was my thought but I need to find someone locally that would do it. The other option may be the V Stream shield. Anyone have any experience with the V Stream?

    I have the shorter Klockwerks. I'm 5'11". On last nights ride, I intentionally felt the blow over with my hand and it goes right over my helmet at 50 mph. As I mentioned earlier, I rarely get any bugs on a direct front hit. I do get some hits from the sides. Being on a bike, you have to expect some buffeting, but I feel that at least for me, this shield fits perfectly. I do ride solo 100%, so no clue on the affects to a passenger.

    I think I will try to cut about an inch off the 16" and take my chances. If I screw it up......V Stream.

    Let me see.......

    Kept the
    1-stock shield for about 400 miles (or better known as the ride home)
    2-Klockwerks 14" tinted
    3-Baggershield
    4-Madstad
    5-I am back to the stock shield with the MRA X-screen bolt on spoiler. To me all of the other shields just killed the looks of the B. I wanted a F6B--not a Goldwing!!!!! The X Screen is about 75-85% as effective as the Madstad as you play with all of the adjustments and configurations.

    Has anyone cut the windshield from the bottom with success? Seems to be the easier fix
