Has anyone bought a windshield from J C Whitneys. I can't make up my mind on the style. Any help would be great from you guys.                      
Thanks Jimmer

I got a National Cycle Brand.....I looked it up on the net,found the one I wanted,then ran across one on ebay,cheaper and like new.

I think it comes down to personal choice. Seems different people have different brands....or it seemed that way to me when I was looking and asking around. Different heights,etc.

Sorry,not much help!

But....if you do a search here on windshields,you may find better info.
There is one website that gives info on how to choose a windshield ,height,etc.....but I can't remember where I found it.

I'm just not much help am I ....sorry! I tend to forget things after the mission is accomplished!

Found the National Cycle Flyscreen to be sufficient enough for my Riding needs ... and it's minimalist look didn't "overpower" the small front end of the Savage ... liked it so much, that I now have it on my VS800!

Just depends on what you want. I'm considering putting the 8" high Z-Bars back on my 99 and then putting a fly-screen on it just so I can redirect some small amount of air when riding at higher speeds. (better than nothing I'm told.)

OTOH, Since I'm wanting my other Savage to have a big fuel tank; solo seat, and really wide handlebars; I'll probably go to the other extreme and get one of the great big shield/fairings that cover your hands and have lowers to protect your legs some. Might even buy an old used Vetter/Windjammer frame mounted fairing and paint it up.

Guess which bike I'd probably jump on in bad weather!  Wink

I have a Memphis fats 21" and i love it. It's larger than alot of people like but for me it's just right. I only use it during the cold months. It really extends the riding season up here in N.H. Nice when it rains too.

Click image for the wallpaper sized version.

The Flyscreen is about nine inches tall and wide.  We're not kidding about being minimalist.

I got the National Cycle Deflector Screen from JCWhitney - $95 and free shipping.  It isn't too big, but it gets the job done.  Can adjust the rake, not intrusive.  Took maybe an hour to install.  I'm satisfied.

I'm putting a Memphis Fats 21" on mine in a couple of months too.  Yea, it's huge, but it'll keep all the bugs off me and cut down on the headaches from wind knocking my head around all day.

Oh yea, that's what I'm talkin' about!  Can't wait till I can ride over there and buy it.  I'll bet that thing makes for one smooth ride, eh?
