Looking for a new windshield....Want something I can look over or every now and then look thru.... Have a Bagger Shield now, but set up I look thru a small window..... Looking at a Madstad or a windbender.......Pros or cons....? How high do the adjust up from the base plate?... I preferer to look over.....Im 5' 10" 31" Inseam sitting on a Mustang seat......Recomdations...? Thanks
I am 5' 11'' and went with the Madstad 13" but was still not completely happy. There was still too much noise and wind in the face for highway riding in the cold here in New England. I ride all year and wanted to keep the cold off my face, so I exchanged the 13 for a 15. Now i can slide it up enough to stop all wind in my face when the temps drop and have a very quiet ride at highway speeds.
I can move it down and see over it when I want or need.
I think as far as looks the Windbender would have been a better choice. I wanted the height adjustability but don't need or care for the rake adjustment. You can get a Windbender without the rake adjustment.
The Madstad gives you 3 inches of up and down movement, I don't remember what the Windbender was.
Just installed the Clearview, large...will rain for the next 4 days, sooooo I will be riding Turkey day...I will try to remember to post the result... I just moved up from a small so I am sure I will be thrilled !!!!!

I decided on F4. Clarity through the light tint is unbelievable. I also liked the fact ot can be cleaned with Windex and is scratch resistent due its' hard coating. I went to a larger screen over my OEM Honda tall and have been extremely pleased with the results. Rode in some fairly strong winds got no buffeting. I really like this product.

Its really quiet behind my windbender. I have set it to look over and never touched it afterward. Its been the first aftermarket shield I've purchased for this bike and I'm satisfied I couldn't have done better. Long dry and rainy trips have been fine behind it.
Just got back from a ride, after putting in a factory vented 16" shield and what a difference. At 5'-10" I can see over it and feel wind free with my shield open on my full face helmet.
