I used one along with some soft luggage on my recent week long trip to West Virginia and found it did an amazing job of keeping the wind off me from bicep to bicep, and from waist to eyes. Running 75 to 80 for hours on end with no neck or arm strain from fighting the wind is awfully nice when going on longer rides.

But I like riding naked bikes, so as soon as I got home, I removed the shield, leaving behind the two brkts on the bars and fork legs.

Then this morning I had to run into town to the post office. I felt like taking the CB, but the temp was in the mid 40s. No prob, grabbed the Street EX and threw it on in literally 2 minutes. Great ride to town, and stayed plenty warm. Then this afternoon, the temps had gotten into the low 70s ..perfect for riding a naked bike. 2 minutes later the bike is naked again, and I went out and hit some curvy country roads enjoying the air.

I'm really pleased with the versatility of this shield. It's not perfect (close but not quite). At 5' 7" the wind coming over the shield hits me square in the eye port of my helmet, causing some buffeting. I think cutting a few inches off the top like CIP 57 did, might make the shield closer to perfect, but for the remainder of this fall and winter I am going to live with it as is, because it does a great job as is.

can you in easy terms explain the difference between the street shield ex and the deflector screen ex?
