    I figured I'd baby step it and see what it's like tomorrow. I'm riding to work, then headed home to pick her up and head to Fancy Gap.

    I ordered my F4 Customs 14" med tint with vent windshield and it was at my house in 2 days. I love this windshield but then I tried the Madstad 11" extra dark. I now love this windshield. I may have to put the F4 Customs back on in the winter for more protection (only time will tell).

    I had the Clearview Med Dark tint on my Harley Davidson Fatboy and loved it. It did take 6 weeks or more to get to my house. When I wrecked the Harley the Clearview broke into very sharp shards that I did not like so I switched when I got the windshield for the F6B. I did not get cut up to bad but the potential was there.

    Question:

    For those of you that bought a Clearview windshield with a vent installed; is the outer portion of the vent fabricated out of smoke colored plastic as well; if you have a tinted windshield?

    My new Clearview windshield is light tinted, and the rear portion of the vent is smoke colored plastic. But the front portion is clear plastic. Looks weird. I would think that both pieces of the vent would be smoke colored?

    Yes, I plan on going to the Rally in Franklin; as long as Erika (the tropical storm) dissipates somewhat.

    I had received an email from Clearview this morning; they did say that what I received is what they are producing; a clear type front vent and a smoked rear louver vent body that attached to it.

    ...and I am getting good with manipulating those two bolts; that hold the front fascia panel over the windshield. Twice now; I've disassembled it to play with the height of the windshield. Currently I have it on it's highest setting; and will take the bike out for a spin to check the effect of turbulence and me head.

    Glad to hear all this as i'm currently waiting for my Clearview shield. I had placed an order for my Kawasaki Vaquero and got lucky they had not started making it yet and was able to change the order to a F6B shield. I got the "large/wide/light tint with a vent" option.

    I love my Clearview! if you follow the MFG's. instructions you can try out what you think you want and send it back if it is not exactly right. If I should ever need another there will be no question where I will go for a replacement.
