I'm tired of the head buffeting and want to give the V-Stream a try. Seems like a respected shield, and hoping it will avoid post-BBG headache I had.

Thanks!

 
I have one on my gen 2. Don't expect miracles. It's better than stock, it almost eliminates buffeting, it's slightly quieter. Good, not great!

 
I use the CB reverse contour +4+4 and while it doesn't cut the noise or wind entirely I have no issues with buffeting being 6-0. Getting now to the warmer season I actually prefer to lower it all the way down on the highway and let the air flow all around the helmet and upper torso. As far as I know buffeting not only depends on the shield but also (in minor way) on the helmet and how well it fits.

Another vote here for the CeeBaileys Reverse Contour. Better than the touring shield or the CalSCI, at least for me. Have not tried others....
