I saw this on a Concours and asked the guy if he liked it. He said it was great at channeling rain water . . . right down to the bottom where it all ran off onto his hands. He said it didn't make much difference on the overall airflow.

I agree. When I first bought the LT I was rounding up farkels right and left like crazy. A lot of those initial, not-so-well-thought-out purchases are now packed in several boxes sitting around in the garage, this thing being one of them. Occassionally you'll see these things out on the road, and it might work all right on a sport shield placing it well below your line of sight, but I also found that not only did it not perform as advertised, but having to look at or around that thick black lip directly in your line of sight was pretty annoying as well. :(

Many years ago I ordered it. Had a hard time putting it on the windshield and on the first rain it start poping out. I returned it. Back then I was using the stock windshield and I guess it was too tick for it.
