On the clearview shilds.

I my understanding correct, the GT shields are at a different angle than the stock angle clearvie shields.  Is that correct?

TN which do you like better the GT or the stock angle?

How tall are you?  and which hight GT do you like best?

I received my Clearview windshields a few days ago and thought because of the snow and cold temps I wouldn't have an opportunity for a test drive until next summer. Luckily the snow is mostly gone and its warmed up to 3 cel, or 37 F. So today I went out for a 30 minute ride. Not too keen on the 9" re curve. Much better than the stock wind screen but still lots of wind noise around the helmet.

The GT medium is great. No wind noise and I can even hear the radio. The only criticism I have is the foam seal on the back of the windshield was not applied evenly across the bottom and it sticks out above the fairing

It may solve that problem but now the windshield is resting directly on the fairing. That can't be good for the paint, or the windshield

I started out thinking the windshield was responsible for the turbulance, but after adding hard lowers and extending my fork air baffle 1 1/2 in I went from an x large clearview to a stock 12 in with complete comfort.

Maybe I'm looking at the wrong thing here..... are we talking about that piece of rubber sticking out from the base of the windshield?
can't you trim it back far enough to protect the paint and NOT have it sticking out so far???
looks like an easy fix to me. :nixweiss:

I picked up some black belting at tractor supply trimmed it to fit the air baffle contour and pop riveted it in place so it clears from lock to lock by about 1/16 of an in, it is not even noticible unless you know its there and really keeps the wind from coming through the opening.

CV has come up with better mounting hardware for the chrome shield trim.  They charge $5 extra for it.  I'm sure it will work better now; however, personally I just don't like the look of the chrome trim on a SERG.  It seems out of place to me, which is why I'm not using one. 


I agree..the chrome trim looks too "Goldwing-ish" for my liking...BUT to each, his own.
