Old ryder and Marine, all good points ...Appreciate your points of view ...After 40 years of riding many different bikes Ive never owned a bagger or ever had a windshield so Im looking forward to it..

After riding the rune for 600 mile stretches to Malibu and getting there only wanting to sleep for the next 2 days from the fatigue, Im looking forward to a more comfortsble ride..
Again thanks for all the info...
