[QUOTE="blassoff, post: 1158525, member: 18977"] I'll try to be your yardstick. I have an 05 purchased In 2010, so 4 years and 25,000 miles experience. I've owned and tried the following: calsci, cee bailey, rifle, vstream, stock, and touring. The only combo I haven't tried is the laminar lip (although I do own one, I've never actually mounted it on the bike). The setup I keep coming back to is the rifle with the tuning block for 3 season riding and the stock shorty in the summer. I'm 6' tall, 33" inseam, with 36" arms. In the full up position ( or nearly so) the rifle is seriously quiet with no buffeting. The shorty is loud and offers a lot of wind, which I really want in 80 to 90 degree riding. I found the calsci too loud, allowing too much air to come through. The cb is probably too short so I would withhold judgement. The vstream works, but I like rifle better. Sure it looks and acts like a barn door, but the experience of riding behind it is pretty close to perfect for me. Hope that helps. Baz [/QUOTE]
