after waiting over a year after they started R&D, I was done waiting and bought something else this spring. I responded to the email letting me know it was finally out stating as such, and I thought with all the options in the $100-150 range, they wouldn't sell as many as they could have since they priced them at $200. LOL....I guess you guys are ok with it, but I will keep my $200 and my clearview flare shield

Did a little looking online at the werks one. Do they come in a darker tint? Seems the one I saw was a little light for my liking.

That thing looks goofy. And for $200 it even ugly.
Just my opinion but I don't care how well it works, that would not go on my bike.

I'll stick with ceebaileys, $100 - 150 shipped and it looks good.

UUUGGG!!! NO SHIELD YET and I already got my UPS delivery. I just tried to contact my sales rep as the shield doesn't even show on the invoice for the stuff that did come in, very unusual unless he forgot to include it in the order. He's at lunch so I gotta call back in a while to find out the scoop.

I agree it's not the best lookin shield by the pics, maybe it'll look better on the skoot. My Vaq is lookin too much like a touring skoot with the 14" shield and less like what Kawi intended it to look like.

I refuse to put one of the longer shields on. I don't care for the looks of them. It looks like the klock werks shield will sit pretty low. Show me another shield out there that will sit that low and deflect wind and I'd be interested. If not and I don't like the looks of the flare shield I will ride with one before I put the tall one on. And you better get on the phone Ray! I still expect pics and report this evening.

Is the clearview shield a lower height shield like the stock shield? Seen some pics online but it looks like a taller shield. If anyone that has the clearview shield could post a pic I'd sure appreciate it.

You can get them in different heights.
