Hi Guys, I went with the Clearview shield for my 2015 R3T. I wanted the recurve top, vent, more height, and width than the stock screen. Funny thing is I ordered four inch wider than stock, and they mistakenly made it only two inches wider. I did call them on it, and I could have sent it back without charge. I requested 28" and received a 26" screen. The more than I looked at it, the more I think the 26" is going to be fine. I think the 28" would have looked too rectangular in shape. So, I'm going to keep it.
I have installed it, and it fits fine. All the holes were properly placed. A bit of work swapping all the brackets though.
I went two inches higher than the stock 16". This was a special order height, so they charged a little more. I figured with the recurve, you don't need as much height due to the shape pushing the air up higher with less plastic. I haven't tried it out yet, due to our messy roads.
On a side note, this is my second Clearview. I had bought one when I had my Kawasaki vn1700 Nomad. I requested the vent. When I received it, and attempted to swap the brackets, they had cut the vent in too low, and the Nomad badge covered part of the vent. Plus the holes weren't drilled exactly right. So, I sent it back, and received the second one. The vent was now where it should be, but I still had to file out several of the holes due to mis measurement.
I knew that I was taking a chance by going back to them a second time for my Rocket, and sure enough, they shipped the wrong width. But, as I said, I'm keeping it.
They make a beautiful shield, but I do question their quality control.
