Wow, maybe screwed too strong a word...

the thing that stinks about the internet forums are that we are not face to face real world and we read things wrong all the time. What may be a joke can backfire.

I got the 16.5" Honda F6B windshield from the dealer and I can tell you that you would love it.

[Dirtstiff's F6B]

On our first long ride on the F6B; I was so mad at that the bike in stock trim because of buffeting and wind shear, constantly lifting my helmet off, I actually had to stop... Man, was I was pissed.

I ordered the Bagger(11" - 19") shield that same day and now it is the bike I expected it to be. http://www.baggershield.com/

I also have V Twins with various height and type shields and knew what to expect with a short shield, but the F6B shield was absolutely horrible..

After the shield & highway peg upgrade, I honestly can say I have never owned a more comfortable bike.

Very satisfied now.

When I find myself complaining about this or that, I just remember how much of a PITA my HD was! It was always one thing or another, in the shop, something falling off, etc. This bike is so well made that we forget what a great machine it is and start making things up to complain about. I've never had a bike that I didn't change or customize to my taste so this bike isn't any different to me.

I have a collection of windshields so I can change it anytime I like. I'm sure this summer I'll put the stock shield back on just for fun.

I've had dozens shields over the years,,, Most of us can tell by looking the 'belly-button' high shield on the 6 is purely for looks, not ~function~,,,

Great for slow putts out in the country in summer,,, NOT for covering ground in a hurry or for those who don't like 'parachute' mode!!!

Rode home last night running about 80+ for 3+ hours,,, Sure LUUUUV my Madstad!!!

I don't give a flying fart if some folks think it ain't sexy!!! LMAO!!!!!
