    Thats why I am making the change. Bad air from my tall boy. The cal Sci im getting is vented to eliminate back pressure and taller. I noticed the new tall boys are vented now but are still too short. I still get the full force air around my forhead.

    Default Madstad wide

    I just replaced the stock shield with a 22" Madstad wide, light bronze tint. I am 6'-2" and can look over this shield but get no buffeting at freeway cruising speeds. I called Blair at Madstad and he suggested a F3-wide. The shield is 2" wider on either side than their standard and I am very happy with the result. Surprisingly, they don't list the wide option on their website, you have to call them.

    Default F3T Windshield

    7Jurock windshields
    We installed one on my wifes F3T Limited and she really likes the protection and it looks great on her bike.

    They are a very good company to deal with and their prices are real good.
    here is a link to.

    we purchased the 16 inch light gray with flip
    It works great

    Ouch!

    I got a Madstad light grey, took me a bit to find the angle that I like. I like it, and a heck of a lot better than the F3 stock bouncing off my chest.

    Ive noticed that both the F4 and the Cal-Sci cut in signifigantly above the rear view mirror top line. How much air get thru that gap???? are there any windshields that don't have that gap???

Easy, but when I left, had to turn around because it had a wrinkle in it. Tried two more and they both had the same wrinkle in the upper right corner. So, he gave me a tall one with a vent. I tell you this because Don might have a discount on the wrinkled ones but, of course, I cannot speak for him.

    I don't like vents because they are useless to me especially on the F3-T because there is a big honking vent up front already under the bottom of the shield. I cannot tell if the vent's open or not for air flow. No difference. Another reason for no vent-- vents get buggy and they are hard to clean plus it interrupts your motion when cleaning the whole shield. He promised to switch it back once the corrected version of no vent shows up in a couple months. I expected a little more protection but it's not as wide as my GL1800.

    I credit the tall shield on the wing for saving my life when a woman came left of center and hit me head on. The shield did not decapitate me which I expect the stock height would have done just that. Plus, I had the old 2002 version which had all the mounting screws up front (after '06 they dropped off 3 of the 6). The F4 did not break nor did it come completely off it's moorings. That kept me from vaulting into her windshield/roof and it catapulted to the right me out of traffic and onto the shoulder of the road.

    Photos here: >CLICK ME<
    You can see the line my helmet gouged into the shield in some of them as it sent to rightward.
    great you survived the 1st thing after the crushed front end was the intact windshield, just out of curiosity what make of car is in your profile i've seen them before not sure if it Italian or German
