Nothing short of a 20 foot mainsail would cause my Strat to be unstable. But setting it up right can be a life long process (on the GZ.) The one that comes from the factory on the Strat is, huge, removable, lockable and works great.

Windshields sometimes come down to what kind of driving you are mainly going to be doing. If it's a lot of highspeed freeway stuff, I think you'll be less fatigued, especially in colder climates. It will also provide one more layer of protection from Shit That Comes Flying Out Of Nowhere Before You Can Duck. I am less happy with the windshield on my GZ, but I still feel safer with it out there. It definitely cuts down on your max speed if you ride in a tuck position, and, at least for the one I have, it is difficult to get them mounted properly. If I had to do it again, I'd go a bit bigger and insist on fork mount only. My first one was like that but it arrived missing parts and misdrilled on the grommet holes and I ended up with the one I have.
