I put 20,000 miles on the other one. I know exactly how much fun 70 is without a windscreen. I'm small, about 5'6", 145 pounds, and I don't want a lexan garage door strapped to the bike. I want something that knocks some wind off my chest. I don't do the search well, clues, websites, much appreciated.

I painted mine on the backside to match the ivory paint on my fuel tank. Kenny G

Versy, you've got what Kenny showed me?
You're a lot bigger guy than I am, aren't you? If so, and it works out for you, then it otta be great for me, wouldn't you think?

It's a 2002, so, I dunno what bars it's wearing. If not drag bars now, it probably will be soon, but I Think I want to have the shield shipped down there and ride home behind it.

So, will the Flyscreen mount up to the buckhorn then swap bars and still work out? Wouldn't wanna hafta hack something off or drill to mount then have a mess later.
They are too expensive for messing up.

Okay, went back, looked at Kennys setup.
Bars don't matter.
Probably keep the buckhorns, IF they don't make holding the bike up harder than the drags..

Versy, you got buckhorns on the flyscreen bike?
Not finding the sportscreen, got a link?

Thanks guys,, I'm Excited!

Yep I got one almost like it... dark tint instead of white.

It mounts to the forks, and as you can see on kenny's, there's about 4" it can slide up and quite a bit of angling can be done. pretty easy to install and adjust.

You might be able to get the turbulence over your head, but for me I like it on my chest, off the helmet. Gives me a little more air in the helmet.

THat's good looking, I like that..
Where would I look for a new one?
Or is that
All There? If 35 bucks will solve it,, I might jump on it.. But I Need it
Down in Galveston.
I don't want to buy it, ship or haul it down.
When the shipping and billing address don't match up it causes a mess sometimes..
But if I can save substantial money,, I might jump through hoops.
