I'm mad.

I just put the world's ugliest windshield on my bike, and it works great. Had a Honda tall when i bought it, tried a Wind Bender, looked good but couldn't make it work. Got a 14" Taka Recurve, looked good with very little buffeting. Just replaced a 16" Clearview with a vent, looked great but slightly more buffeting than the Taka. Installed a ------- 13" in under an hour and took it for a test ride in 30 mph crosswords. NO BUFFETING AT ALL. Started at 60 degrees, all the way down, good. Set it to 47 degrees, thought it would look better raked back, still good. Didn't like the gap at the bottom so set it to 55 degrees, looks slightly better. I think I could set it up to 70 degrees and it still would work. I hope I get used to how it looks because I have never had such a calm cockpit on any motorcycle with any other windshield. Rats. And great.

I'm happy to hear this. I have a 17" on the way. I hope I have as good of results. I got the 17" because I often sit on an air hawk cushion on long trips, and it raise me up some. I'm 6'3" and even with a tall Honda shield with a vent I still get some buffeting at the top of my head without the cushion.
