Default Would Like advice on a windshield

Hello Everyone:

I wanted to ask advice on a windshield.

It's been years...about 20 years since I had a cruiser. I've always rode sportbikes since they first came out. Last friday I went and bought a 03 Mean Streak cruiser. Nice, but unlike my Gixxer...the wind at gusts are blowing me all over the place. With my Gixxer if the wind gets gusty..I just lean down and..everything is fine. This thing...I sometimes wonder if the wind will blow my hands off the bars.

The question is...will a wind shield help this? I know the common answer would be yes...but I'm wondering how much. And there are different sizes of these shields.

Any suggestions?

Thank you in advance for your opinions.
