What comes stock on 2013 CVO:
9" or 12" or 15" Smoked?

12"

[YELLOWBIRD]

 My vote is for Windvest.

Been through "the wind screen tour". stock, brand X, brand XX, brand XXX.

The tunes came in more clear and no more bad air.

Ride Safe,

Bought a 2013 CVO RG. Hated the Windspitter it came with but liked the look. Bought a 12" LRS Mako. Better but still get a lot of buffeting and don't care much for the look. I'm 5'9" with a 30" inseam. Like to know what you guys use and what you like and dislike about your current shield.

I hadnt noticed on the RGC but does it have the wind deflectors mounted on the engine guards?

12"

Thanks

Yes

I have recently put my first 1,000 miles on my new Orange CVO RG Custom and the winshield is a problem. Does anyone have any ideas of anything that will help with the wind, but not screw up the look too bad? I have corrected my issues with previous Road Glides with Clearview, Kockwerks, and C Bailey's but this bike has a totally different look and I can not find anything online or any forum with a solution for this bike. I am 6 feet tall.  I am convinced it is not the lack of lowers causing this and is a winshield issue.
Any suggestions and pictures of your solutions on your bike will be greatly appreciated. I ordered the tour pack etc and plan on making this my touring bike, but I will need to go back to the Road Glide Touring if I don't get this figured out.

I am also 6' tall and have had the same issue.    I had a 2012 CVO Road Glide and now have a 2013. I didn't like the factory windsplitter. I tried a friends 12" windvest(didn't help). I bought a 12" klock werks(not much better). I put on a 14" windvest at biketoberfest and it made all the difference in the world. I rode 300 miles the day I put it on without the wind buffeting my ears. I also don't have to turn the stereo up nearly as much as before.

Do you have a picture that you could post.  Can't find one with it on this bike.

Is this a 14" Windsplitter Dark Smoked?

I have been fighting this battle since I got my bike. I have gone thru quite a few different shields including the 14 HD, the KM 16, Cee Baileys 15 all with no luck against buffeting until I got the Cee Baileys 16 which works for me up to about 80mph at which time the buffeting still kicks in but it is livable.  I am 6.3 with a 33 inseam and I switched the rear shocks to 13in Ohlins which also lifts up the rear an inch.

Still looking for pictures on a 2013 CVO RG CUSTOM with a tall windshield on it. I know taller ones look fine on the standard RG and RG touring, but have a feeling going to look bad on the Custom. Trying to get a look to see if I can live with it before I buy the windshield. I would appreciate any pictures!

Go to road glide forums. There is a windshield specific forum with plenty of photos. None of the windshields are going to look as good as stock one!

[vidro]

Do you have a link? I have looked and can not find them. I do realize the bike will not look as good. I am looking for the best alternative.
