This product looks great on my bike

The shield is actually too small to keep the wind from ripping around it but it does look great.

This smaller than normal tinted windshield does not hide front end chrome too badly, directs wind away from face just enough and vision is not overly impaired. Very snug detacheable brackets.

Switchblade Deflector

Nice windshield for fit and function. Does a great job keeping the wind off your chest and allows for a windshield free look and feel. Some buffet above 50MPH but to be expected. Overall it is a great product and performs as it is designed to do.
