Question: Do you have a windscreen?

I have a windscreen and love it.
I dont have and don't want a windscreen.
I don't have one but may get one.
I had one but no longer do.

Here ya go, all done, quick install, rides fine (same), no bugs
to test on right now cause of rain, visibility was not compromised,
instrument panel is now protected and cozy, I originally wanted
smoke color but the black one was 50% off, looks fine, well, this
of course depends on personal opinion but I just don't see how
one can "ruin the looks" of a 125cc from the 90's  Cheesy

Oh BTW I just installed a new rear Dunlop 451 (D404 in front)
and a DID chain, before this rear I had a Continental but I did
not like it at all, wet riding was a disaster and lasted only 3k
miles, I'll never buy conti again.

Ba-bye now
Cool


Is it just me, or does anybody else see nothing but red Xs on Stimpy's post? Wanted to see the pics  Sad

odd, I can see them fine

today I stopped using imageshack for pic hosting
because it was being weird again and started using
another service called postimage.org, maybe I did
something wrong with the hot-link embedding code

...mmmm, lemmeesee.

(I think it's fixed now)

I have yet to ride with one.
I know that on my 200+ mile trips across the state I'm pretty sure I wanted one.

Recently I acquired a stock shield from an S40 but have yet to put it on. I think I only want to use it during long trips and maybe the winter.

Seeing as how summer in FL is approaching I want access to all the wind I can get.

It seems to me that the most interesting thing about this poll is the last option,  "I had one, but no longer do."  This category has no votes.  Thus, it would seem that once you try a windscreen, you are hooked.

Nope.  It is just that you have to pick one choice over the other.  I both "don't have and don't want a windscreen" and "had one but no longer do."  

If I had a long commute at high speeds in a high-bug area, I might look into them again.  I am sure they are great if you hit on one that has just the effect you want, and does not add any problems.  For me, no cigar.
