As for the buffeting caused by a screen, mine is small and it doesn't seem to matter much. On my brother's HD with a really big windscreen I could feel the front wheel wiggling when in the vortex behind a trucker, kinda unnerving. I would rather look over the top of my small screen and have the wind in my face than ride his with no wind where I have to look through the plastic, like being in a cage.



Gary, you didn't say how tall you are. I'm 6'0" and also have the summer screen. I haven't had any problem from winds, trucks, etc., but the wind hitting me in the face is uncomfortable at speeds over 60. I only ride with a shield on my helmet now. Hopefully, a replacement that fits the summer screen brackets will be available soon. ClearView Shields is offering a replacement at 1/2 price for someone that will send them their Triumph Summer Screen with brackets to use as a template. Stock is only 13" high and I probably need a 17" or more to get the wind to the top of my helmet. They plan to make a couple of different sizes. You still want to be able to see over the top, but the increased wind shouldn't hit you in the face.

ClearView is in Denver, CO. I'm in Florida and still riding in pleasant weather. If no one has taken them up on their offer in another month, I'll send them mine. If you're interested, contact John Lauk at Clearview: info@clearviewshields.com.
