Exact results of wind shield testing. All Brands

Buffeting is a problem. How well do the new wind shield designs work? Simple. Rate Your road tested wind shield 1 to 10. 10 being the best. what were the short comings.  :soapbox:

The 12 inch KW I would rate at a 5. Moderate Buffeting. Good for 200 mile day. get's annoying after while. Looks are a 10. I am looking for more protection.  :coolblue:

Whats up with the chart? You must be an engineer. I don't mean to be naive, but that's confusing.

Thought that was an unnecessarily difficult read also.  Tried a new format to display the most relevant data.  See if this is clearer?

Sorry I went over board. I was looking for actual tested information about the effects of buffeting. Looks are important to many but function is most important to every one. :coolblue:
