Your windshield is probably too big, or too tall. You shouldn't be looking across the edge of the screen, it should be below your line of sight. That can be distracting and a safety issue.
How tall is it? 19 or 21"? Too bad you can't trim a few inches off the top.
My windshield is much shorter, 15", I should have found one maybe 17", but I like it. It certainly keeps most of the love bugs off me in the spring and fall, and altho my head is in the wind, my body and hands are well protected from the wind and flying debris.
I don't think gain in top speed should be the reason people get a shield, but rather protection from all that's coming your way should be the goal.
