    It's nice to have that option. Get a shield with a vent.

    I have run the Baggershield 19" with vent for two years now.It has held up well and has stayed scratch free which is saying a lot here in the high wind dusty high desert.Vent to me is a must as it can get some air into the cockpit and helps when open with back turbulance.Baker wind wings help a lot too which I have with the shield.Pictures were taken before I had installed the Baker Wings.002.jpg003.jpg

    As of now I do not have any of the risers made. If I can get a couple more folks interested I may make a run after the first of the year ! So far there are two people interested.
    Thanks for the interest !!!

    Looks like I'm between Baggershield and Clearview. Gotta decide if the recurve and tint are worth $100 more than the Baggershield. Those are the differences that I see anyway. I did like the looks of my Clearview.

    Had a vent in the Clearview on my Valkyrie. Couldn't tell a difference whether open or closed. But I did have to replace the vent after about 5 years because it started to crumble. Bought the tall Honda windshield with vent for my F6B. Couldn't tell a difference when open. Installed Baker hand wings and those things work great. Have a Madstad shield now and love it.
