Don`t worry , i won`t order a Clark`s , the look is hurting my eyes ( in my opinion ) , but the making of the grip-wings is interesting for me , maybe one could add this feature on your own to any shield .
One would need two " wing-material-piece " and a mounting idea .
I´m just thinking " loud " .  ::)

JMO but I think this is over the line when it comes to form & function. As it probably works ok, it looks bad.  besides, the wind from my CV Stock is fine

Larry thats my point exactly, I tried two Clearviews and was not happy with either style, Windshields and Exhaust Systems are extremely subjective Items.

Thanks for the good info......Could you tell me how tall the shield is using ClearViews measuring technique, measuring from the top of the speedo/tach housing to the top of the shield.
Thanks

Dartman or anyone else on this thread, how is it a 14" CB or CV isn't adequate but a 10" Clark's is?  Is there that much difference in a bit of contouring or material?  Just got confirmation that my CB 14" was shipped and was excited about getting it but am not hoping I didn't waste $267 that I could have spend on clothes for the Mrs or some other options for my SERG...   :oops:

SB, my clark is a 14in it puts the turbulance about 3 in above my head, I wish you well, my 14in CB hits me smack dab in the middle of my forehead, if I crouch down its not to bad, you might be fine, every body has a different riding style and tolerances, I passed a rider yesterday with no windscreen and a little pot helmet, his face was flapping like a flag but he had a big grin on his face.
