I also ordered the Sport model and get buffeting on my arms which is again a disappointment. As soon as it was installed I voiced my reservations about the height to my dealer. They in turn called Clearview and were told that Clearview doesn't make a taller shield. After reading these blogs and seeing the video I am at least hoping it is a strong acrylic and can't be shattered like the sample shown. I was not aware that the Honda OEM is polycarbonate. Feeling pretty disappointed right now and am aware that Clearview does not have an easy return policy. If I could do it over again, I would spend the money for an 18" F4 Custom like a friend advised me to do in the first place.
    IMO the Clearview is a blend of performance and aesthetics... with maybe a higher weighting towards aesthetics. Sorry to hear about you guys' disappointments; maybe the "tour-width" and "recurve" options woulda made it a different experience? This is what I have on the "tall" shield and it does ok for me.
