After market windshields
« on: February 14, 2013, 05:09:19 PM »


For those of you that have installed after market windshields, what have you installed and what's your opinion on how it performs. If you have tried more than one brand of shield, what is your preference and why. Curious minds want to know.(or another way to put it is, I'd like to avoid a mistake by profitting from yours)
Thanks,

Fork

Check out the sticky thread above.  "Try a windshield for free". It now or will in a few days have 5 shields from 4 different manufactures (one in 2 sizes).  Add your name to the list and you can try them all. All you have to do is pay to ship to the next guy on the list.   Pretty nice huh?

I have a Cee Bailey's Euro cut. The quality is very good and the wind flow is much smoother than the stock shield.

Dang, I may have to put my name back on the list again. There were only two shields when I tried them out.
'14 BMW 1200 GSw (red, what little there is that's not grey)
'11 Concours ABS (black) w/ Leo Vince carbon, heated Corbin, Garmin; TechSpec pads (gone but not forgotten)
'05 Yamaha FZ6, only crashed once, gone in trade; '87 Honda Gold Wing Aspencade, sold; '85 Honda Magna (700), sold; '76 Kawasaki KZ400, sold

Cee Bailys Ultra Tour for me. The ultimate for wind protection and long range touring comfort.
