[QUOTE="BBAR, post: 1241335, member: 20945"] Now to make things confusing. I agree it is personal, but I never found one screen on any bike that works in all conditions for me. I purchased Three or four different windshields for my FJR depending how you look at it. In really cold weather I have used a larger V stream. In more varying weather I went with a slightly larger over stock CalSci. For warm weather, I bought a smoked CalSci small shield. And the fourth came OEM when I purchased the FJR new, but it pretty much came off right away and went into storage. They all had their pluses and minuses when using them. But when it came down to it, I think I preferred the smoked small CalSci the best. I think more because I tend to like the shield down as low as possible in the warm weather. But that same shield does afford fairly decent protection when things turn cooler/cold. So I find it more flexible to adapt to changing weather than the others. Although in the colder weather that would switch to the other CalSci for the slightly better cold protection, but still decent air flow when down. But then of course riding in cold late fall/winter days, that V stream does cut a nice hole in the wind. I guess that's why I spent the money and went three ways. I change them based on a particular situation (normally trips). But to be fair, the small smoke spends by far most of the time on the bike.
