Never drove with a windshield. Or, saddlebags. I only drove a raked bike once. A Triumph Bonneville. The reason I drove it was because that was my dad's bike when I was about 2 yrs old. Me and a high school buddy established all the lines of ownership and I later confirmed it with my dad. Same bike. There's a snapshot of me about 2 yrs old sitting on the gas tank. He put me on the tank and rode around that way but I don't remember much of that. Guess they would give you max voltage in the chair nowadays for taking a kid out riding like that.
