You're right....3 minutes and it's back to normal.

I look just over the top and I have no deflectors on my bike now. So far, haven't needed any.

JUST ORDERED MINE

I dislike, but can manage the sustained winds. The gusts throw me off balance and make me grab on. There have been beautifully sunny, but very windy days when I don't ryde because I hate the wind that much.
I just returned from a ride along the lake where the winds were about 15 mph. I could tell it was windy as the jacket under my arms was flapping. (I had a denim jacket). I kept waiting for the scary gusts. If there were any, I didn't feel them. Both the Spyder and my body were perfectly stable in the wind. In fact, I didn't even feel a need to brace myself in any way. I can't believe I'm hoping it will be windier tomorrow, so I can test it again.
As for the clarity- no problems whatsoever. I highly recommend this windshield. It is going to make a huge difference in my riding. If you're on the fence about purchasing one for your Spyder, don't be. You won't be disappointed. I LOVE it.
Ya sold me! I ordered mine on Wednesday. Will be here by Monday. My biggest issue with the stock RT-S windscreen is the NOISE ... from the wind, from the road, and from the muffler. All noises seem to converge right behind the stock windscreen and funnel into my helmet. Am looking forward to more comfortable rides, starting next week.
Thanks for the good review.

I just talked to mark at calsci and he said I would need a XL on a RS I am 5'11. I hope everyone on here is right and this is the bomb.com. I will let you know next week when I get it and after old blue gets out of the shop. I have to put it in today, I am getting a check transmission message. I hope there is nothing big wrong it only has about 3600 miles on it.

WINDSHIELD
I made my own for my 08 GS a long time ago.....then bought the RSS and needed something for that...I lucked out and got a slightly used F-1 ( not made any-more ? ) at a great price......it works for me...it's 30 inches from the "V" to the top with all sorts of curves molded into it.....Mike...

Calsci
I'm 5' 11" with a 31" inseam. I received my XL Calsci today and all I can say is:
WOW, WOW and WOW!
I love this windshield! I probably would have been satisfied with the large but decided at the last minute to get the XL since I sit on a seat pad.
You owe it to yourself and your passenger to get a Calsci.

Will be awaiting your feedback.....

I should be receiving mine tomorrow, but won't be able to install it until the SPyder gets out of the shop. They were supposed to start working on it yesterday or today. I hope I hear something to day and it is good news.

Awesome!
The difference this windshield has made is unbelievable! I rode to work this morning around 5AM and realized I never put my helmet visor down. I didn't need to with all the protection this windshield provides from the wind! With it all the way down, I am looking OVER the top, not through it. This windshield allows me to ride with it all the way down with a similar feeling of the OEM when it was around 1/3 of the way up. The CalSci blocks much more of the shoulders and arms than the OEM. If I had to complain about anything, it would be that it eliminates too much of the wind! I might need more wind flow in the summer.
The bottom line is it's AWESOME!

You're really making me excited about mine with a post like this. You might want to decrease the size of the "awesome" word at the end, gets my hopes up just a little.....LOL
