    You may be asking yourself, what are PRELOADERS?
    PRELOADERS:
    Subscribers to this channel who are dedicated to being proficient in slow speed motorcycle operation.
    What does PRELOAD mean?
    PRELOAD:
    Engaging the throttle to raise the RPM’s (revolutions per minute) above idle and holding the throttle there, with the clutch pulled in (no power to the rear wheel, “in reserve” “PRELOADED”). This process will make power to the rear wheel available to the rider immediately when the clutch is opened up. There’s no need for the rider to be concerned with twisting the throttle for power because it’s already PRELOADED.

    Hey...just stumbled on your videos....I work for Klockwerks here in Mitchell, South Dakota, and on behalf of the company, I thank you for such a thorough review. Yes, you're still going to get wind in your face...part of the reason we ride, right? But the Flare cleans up the wind and eliminated the "bobble-head" effect. It's also a performance windshield putting as much as 15 pounds of down-force on the front end at highway speeds to, like you said, hug the ground. We all know that the bike's front ends get light at highway speeds. These are wind tunnel designed and Bonneville Salt Flats proven. We now have them in an array of colors to really make your bikes look great. Again, on behalf of Klockwerks, thank you!

    Robert. Love the videos. I have the exact same bike and also went with the 9" klockwerks windshield. As for the additional wind through the fairing, with my2020 road glides they did away with the operating vents in the lower part of the fairings. There are kits available that remove the existing tunnels and replace them with tunnels that have the closable vent doors. I installed one of these kits on my 21CVO RG and it makes a huge difference. Especially closing them at highway speeds.

    The 9” looks great and the bike is looking awesome. I personally think I would go with the 14” for the type of highway miles I do. Just a little more protection from bugs and small stones, I’m all about the comfort and protection. Keep up the great video Robert.

    Dang that a gorgeous bike. The 9" looks nicer. A fairing just makes a low pressure area behind it. The dual vents helps to add some pressure around your chest to control potential buffeting. Bugs will come thru the vents but screens are available for that. 31 yrs. on the job and I'm still working the road and looking to improve the skills. Thanks and keep getting after it Robert.

    Man that bike is absolutely on another level RS. I’m not apposed to the 14” if it works. Like you neighbor mentioned it doesn’t take away from the bike. But the 9” has the tight squared off look. Any way you go that bike is a Prince. Ride safe and ride often.

I prefer the 9 inch klockwerks windshield myself. I'm 6'2" and always ride with a full face modular helmet so I like some wind coming back for cooling purposes.

    Robert. Is my understanding that the top edge of the windshield should be at the same level of the tip of your nose when you are sitting straight in your motorcycle.
    I did that, my son helped me with a láser level and I found that for me should be 10” windshield in my Ultra Limited. And it works. Try that approach and find out what height suggestion came out from the test

    Like you, I have the 14" and 9". I'm 5'10" and like seeing over the top. I wish KW made a 9" clear (why not!!!) I'm a Heritage owner also and I love the clear windshield it has. You might find that with the vent open, there is less wind on your face....try it. Also, MOST of the wind buffering comes from the bottom up!..not over the windshield. Place you had at the top of your helmet and you may have little wind buffering...so the windshield is doing it's job. Now close you legs close to the tank....that might get rid of a lot of buffering. Now put your open hand down by you legs/knees and you will eliminate more wind buffering. Bottom line - a lot of the buffering is coming from below and up....not over the top. So I installed a HD wind buffering shield...useless!! Saw a HD RG with a molded lower wind buffer installed in Daytona. But I think it was a special CVO order. Still looking....but close your legs to the tank and that will remove a LOT. Love your vids....sorry I missed you at Bike week. ONe more thing, for slow speed skills....head turn, friction zone, light rear breaks, preload, etc....If you ain''t doing 8 - 10 mph or more....down she goes!! PRELOAD and friction zone are THE MOST IMPORTANT. IMO, you're the only one of the "teachers' that emphasis the importance of PRELOAD....THANKS! I need that on my '20 RG with 2 - up most of the time. Heading to Lafayette, LA for rally and then Panama City Beach and Sturgis. Hope to see you.

    @Robert....!!! Wish I could meet you in person, shake your hand and tell you, thank you! Yet another awesome video on a product that I'm looking at and trying to decide on which one to buy. The 9 inch or the 14 inch dark smoke windshield. Your video help me with my decision. Going with a 9 inch K lock Werks shield. Best of all, I don't plan on buying the bike until July or August of this year. I have plenty of parts for it as of now. Really wanted to buy the shield and have that ready to install the day I get the bike. This is the second video of yours that has helped me in product decision making. The last video of yours that I checked out was on the TAB performance zombie exhaust systems. Your video was a big help on my new exhaust system. Again, thank you very much my friend and keep up the good video work....!!! Alec

    I think the vents in the RG fairing provide some air pressure behind the fairing, to prevent air from swirling around the sides, trying to fill a big low pressure pocket behind the fairing. That swirling air coming around the fairing and up around the tank causes a lot of head buffeting because it’s so turbulent. The vents “backfill” the low pressure pocket with smoother air from the front. Closing those vents might introduce a whole new set of problems.

    Robert. Just to let you know that I bought the 9” sport flare for my 2016 Road Glide…and hate it! I closed the vent and the wind hit right at the top of my helmet. I did watch the directions and the 9” should have been perfect. I’m going to return it and by the 12” one.

    Excellent video! I like KW. Yeah, they cost a little more but the quality is there and you get what you pay for. QUESTION - I've always been curious to know what it''s like for a motor officer during the winter. What's it like? What gear do they wear? Do you ride as much or does the weather limit you and if so, were you desk bound or switch to a car patrol? Please tell us as much as you can about that. I'm sure your viewers would love to hear about it. Thanks.

    • @BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle

      Thank you very much! The only thing that limits riding is ice. Then cars are used. We wore leather jackets. I actually showed it on one of my very early videos.

      I wondered that too about motormen that patrol in cold weather climates (such as NYC.. gets cold there in winter .. it as bad as chi Tho.. gotta get my winter gear together.. bought a full face the other day.. ibe always been a 3/4 helmet dude and used to stop riding around thanksgiving. Just got off a 15 year riding hiatus and don’t think I can go 3-4 months not riding. So if no ice or snow I gotta work out some winter riding gear for some short rides at least

    I think those lower vents brings the air up to your shoulders. If blocked off it might lower your air around the body portion

    Looks awesome.
    I had a 4 inch, stock, garbage stuffer windshield on my Electra Glide when I bought it. I put the 10" Klockworks on and it was too tall. It cut the wind, but I was looking right through the bend on the top. Everything was distorted.
    So I went with the 7". I love it. I still get a little buffering at 80mph, but nothing that bothers me too much.
    I wear a modular or a full face helmet. I rarely use the clear glass face shield. I usually pull down my sun shield instead. It keeps the bugs off enough and also gives me plenty of air circulation. Not to mention, full face protection.
    I like the touch of the 9" windsport windshield on your RG CVO. Very classy.
