For the winter here in California we put a piece of foam 2'x26'at the leading edge at the bottom, you can raise or lower it at wrll as it dose'nt affecvt it at all. Keeps the cold air rain etc from coming under the sheild, we painted it to match the color of the bike close but no cigar. It makes for a little more buffeting but is liveable and you could do the same with the stock sheild.Works better if you pull the connection for the motor so the sheild stays put when you turn off the key.
