Wasted money
I am 5'11". Constant wind hitting the top of the helmet. I do believe the stock shield was better. I can't stand this and will look for a tall shield. |

An update on my 4/30/2014 Review
I completed my long ride this weekend (May 3rd) and did another ride the next day. My wife said she couldn't provide enough input on how the windshield performed but I will. The bubble it provides for the rider is very noticeable. It does what you've read about; it pushes the air away from the side and the top of the rider. I am 5' 10" and have it adjusted at the highest setting. This is the setting for me. The windshield is clear and provides excellent visibility. I think this is a quality product and I'll add this... it looks great on the trike. I got many positive comments on the shield this weekend. If you're looking to change the look of your Gold Wing, you may want to look at the V-Stream SE. |

Installation and quality appear top-notch
I ordered this for an upcoming ride and received it 2 days later... thanks WingStuff for the quick delivery. Install was fairly easy and it is good advice to put a rag under the fasteners around the mirrors to prevent them from falling into the fairing area. I haven't rode with it yet due to rain but plan on making the long ride this weekend. I will update the stars after the ride. More to follow. |

Update on mileage
I now have 50k miles w/ this windshield- still oging strong & in excellent condition- no pitting, crazing or cracks. I do use Zip Coat to promote water runoff during rain & prevens smearing(acts like rain-x). Is made for plastics, unlike rain-x. |

It works
Installed thins on my 2012 and it does reduce buffeting and wind noise for both me and my passenger. Install wasn't bad, screws that hold windshield on are very tight and hard to get loose. a bit difficult to get the screw that ratchets back in place |

Still going strong after 36k mi
My last review was in Feb '12 at 13k mi. This shield now has 36k mi & going strong. No cracks or scratches & as far as I can tell reduces buffeting (note- reduces, not eliminates). Very good product value. |

easy install
Got this for Xmas finally got good enough weather to install, which was a breeze. The only problem I had was one of the screws was almost impossible to get loose and now instead of a philips head it is a square drive :-( The windshield itself seems to be very sturdy, can't wait to get on the road with it. Will try to post again after a few rides. |

Love My Second V-Stream
I am on my second V-Stream SE and love it. I had one on my 2005 and have another on my 2012. In my opinion, they are far superior to some other aftermarket options, and much better than OEM. They look great, perform well and are quite rugged. |

Bad News Again
Well, I ordered my first one and all went well for a while until I git three cracks developing on one side of the vent and three on the other side of the vent and one in the middle all growing everyday in length. I finally had to drill stop hole at the end of every crack. Call Wingstuff and they replaced it. Put the new one on and as of today 9-30-2012 I now have three cracks from one corner of the vent and one from the other migrating down. I have to go drill stop holes right now so I can use the bike this week and go to work. I have a e-mail and pictures on the way to Wingstuff right now. I hope they replace this one because I have a 300 mile ride schedule for Friday and I'm the lead guy. The last thing I want is this windshield to come apart in my face going down the road. I'm almost willing to go back to stock if I could find a stock height windshield with no vent or have the factory send me one of these with no vent hole. I never use the things anayway. Can that be done |

Much Better Shield
Finally made the decision to buy this VStream Special Edition shield. This year has been tough on me when it comes to riding. Had spinal cord surgery in Feb and surgery on 5 discs in my lower back in Mar. I have been taking short rides, but even then I would come back hurting, mostly because of the head buffeting I was getting with the stock shield. I installed the new VStream shield on Saturday. Install is very straight forward. The pictures do not fully illustrate the contours and curves built into this shield. It really pushes the air out at the top in a completly different manner than stock or other normal shields. Went for a ride yesterday and was super impressed with the reduction in buffeting around my head! Yesterday was my longest ride I have taken since my surgeries, about 265 miles. What a difference! I could not have done that with my stock shield. As for all the other things like rain zip coating, guess I will have to wait for the rain! They do include a small bottle of rain zip with the windshield so you don't need to purchase one up front. |

Best Investment Yet
I'm as happy as a clam with this windshield. It does everything they claim. Much stiffer, no buffeting, less wind on myself and the passanger and not much distortion when I'm looking through the shield. Honda should have been the ones to reseach this further. maybe on their 2014 Goldwing they'll get it right. I would recommend this change to all goldwings. Oh I forgot to mention this. It makes for a much more stable platform for anyone who is mounting their GoPro on the side of the windshield such as I do. |
