    I may have a different set of criteria as I actually liked the stock windsheid and the wind.It was a trip down south in August that made me consider and install a Klockwerks shield. The bugs were so thick I couldnt keep up trying to wipe them away from my helmet.
    The Klockwerks works fine for me and is effective in the cold,no buffeting,keeps me dry when it rains,hails or snows. No I didnt intend to ride in the snow and it wasnt sticking but I live in Colorado where weather is sometimes determined by how high you are.
    For those in Co,Trail Ridge Road.
    Point is I'm happy with my Klockwerks.

I believe part of the secret is leaving the vent partially open allowing some air to flow through and block the buffeting air breaking over the top of the windshield.
    Do you look over the shield or through it? Thanks

    My MStad works great in any position, but I get whisps of air around my ears with a half helmet.
    Cant hear music at speed.

    I tried the Klockwerks, I got lots of buffeting. Honda 15" works okay, not great. Went back to the "Wind Bender" it works great. EZ up-down adjustment at stop light. Great folks to deal/work with.

    As I said in an earlier thread I have Windbender by FireCreek and I have no complaints. This is the second motorcycle I have had a Windbender on and I never considered anything else when I bought the B.

    Thanks, good to know. That would be unacceptable for me. Part of the reason that I bought the F6 is for the great sounding stereo.

    I've settled with two shields. I use a Tulsa Tall for very long trips. I use a 16" Clearview most of the time. The Clearview does have turbulence at highway speeds. I added a sort of "xscreen" to help with that.
