which windshield?

Hey folks,

Not sure how many of you use a windshield, but I was curious as to what ya'll thought of these two:

20in. tall, 21in. wide:


15in. tall, 16in. wide:

 

I have the spitfire on my xj 550, and it works good, short enuf to look over, yet still keeps most of the wind bugs, and rain off my face

Personally, I like the first one. But then again, I don't have a windshield, nor do I know too much about them. But if I was the one buying it, I'd get the first one. I think it looks more natural, the curves aren't so angular, and it looks more like it belongs on the bike. That's just my opinion though.

 

I guess it would depend on weather you had a square headlight or a round one. I have the square one and use the lower windshield. Have had it on about a week. Toor a while to get the rake right so it didnt sound like an aircraft overhead or the vacuum behind the windshield to shaking my head around. I like it and should increase fuel milage too. As the wind doesn't have to hit a brick wall known as my chest anymore. Should know by the end of the week. I will let you know my findings.

 

thanks folks,

I like the size of the spitfire, but wasn't sure, since I have put on some different handlebars off a cb550 - they're a little wider so I wouldn't be as tucked in behind the spitfire, which is why I am considering the larger one....but it's taller and I'd have to look through it, not sure if I'd like that.
