I've owned 5 bats to date 1 shark both rode well , but IMO the bat keeps off the rain better it did fir me anyway if you are lucky enough to have wall to wall sunshine I guess either way is fine.

lol yep haven't been in the rain yet but I don't live in England where it rains every day.  I live in Texas yes wall to wall sunshine most of the year.  Ive had 4 bats  1 rocker and 1 fatboy.  None of which block to much rain.  So Ill just close the vents if it rains and hope for the best..  I just like I can see when I ride my head is not buffeting so bad i need a 20 inch windscreen  to let me see.  Lol not that bad but all my bats I've had to replace the screen.  This one I don't.  PS just messing with you

this is so nice though not sure you had a 15 rg but nice.  LOL and I think its y'alls huge license plates that causes a lot of the problem with the  rain not aero dynamic.
