Light bike.  I'd watch the size.  I have an "issue" S40 Boulevard windshield.  Feels like it's on the high end of what the machine tolerates easily.  Even so, I get a bit of front end lightening at speed that I don't like much, so I lean into it and tuck behind a bit at 60.  Helps stability a good deal.  I get pushed pretty hard by gusts, but not any problem to handle. Some of these "sail" size screens might prove really troublesome.

I suspect even a quite small screen would help reduce the air on belly/chest feel a good deal!

I have a memphis fats 21" and I don't think I'd want anything smaller. I have no windblown problem or instability. Still getting 59 mpg.
