Thanks for all the input. I will begin to start shopping. And thanks for going easy on me being a Newbie and all.

Get the Madstad it is not that expensive and really works great. No buffeting and just enough wind fluttering not really flowing across your face.

Combine a wide screen with vent and Baker Wings. Here a picture.

This is a true statement, I find myself cooler if I wear my mesh Tourmaster jacket.

Is there another way, can you avoid highway riding? I hate the turbulence behind semi's, too, and the only way I know around that is to ride the two lane roads as much as possible. Much more enjoyable, too.
Other than that, my vote is for Madstad windshield with Baker Air Wings.

No problems with holes as they provide you a clear template to put over your existing shield. I have the stock shield on for summer months, Baggershield on for winter months.
The tall windshield is adding to your buffeting around the semi's. The fixed shields can't handle the extra turbulence the semi's produce. The short stock windshield actually works great around the semi's when using a good full face helmet (an open face helmet adds to the buffeting as well b/c it "catches" the air instead of diverting it around). The taxman add on screen or the Madstad with it's adjustability would no doubt perform better. Mesh gear also helps as it allows the wind to blow through. When all else fails just pace the speed of the semi's in the right lane and stay there. It's better than passing them continuously and you will enjoy the ride much more. I learned this on I-70 through Indiana, Illinois and Missouri where the truck traffic is endless. They move along at a consistent speed and it didn't add any significant time to my day. Good luck and ride safe. Cheers!
