Yeah, but your cut looks to be really good/smooth/nice from the photo.  That is on my to-do list this year.

Got a break in the rain for a couple hours today and was able to get her out for a quick rip!  :)


If you're wanting air this is definitely the ticket for ya, it almost felt like I was riding a motard or something...  :finger_fing11:
Was able to get a couple outside shots of it so I'll post those up for those interested.  :chugbeer:


















So, does it block much airflow with it raised up?
In other words, down for lots of air, up for protection?
Or is at all air, all the time, regardless?

In comparison to my CB shield I'd say not all that much protection in the full up position, yes it does provide some protection in the up position, but not enough to bang through a major rain storm, the main purpose of this sportscreen is definitely for warm summer-like weather.

What's the airflow across the helmet feel like in both positions? Do you get a nice, clean, quiet flow? I know if I stand up on my Connie with the stock shield down, my RF1100 gets quieter and smoother than if I'm sitting behind the shield.

Very clean air indeed WG, pretty much full on air to the chest and head.

I like that gold. I am guessing those are photoshopped?  I would not think of gold as a good color but oddly I find the above attractive.

I purchased one of Jay's sportscreens that he never used and installed. This screen really changes the dynamics of this bike. It transforms the front end from the toury side of Sport Touring to much more of a Sport bike look. Looks like a falcon head up front the way the air vents and nose cone are designed. Sitting on the bike gives the sensation that you are on the ZX14 more then the C14 as the screen is so low cut.

The sensation while riding is very different then the stock screen. As Jay pointed out this does throw a ton of air at you. At 80MPH I feel like I better be holding on well or I will be blown back. Oddly I have a sport screen on my FZ1 and it does not give me that same sensation and I believe the difference is in seating position. On the FZ1 I am leaning more forward as I also have lowered triple clamp set up on that bike and on the C14 I am sitting a bit more upright. I am 6'2" and the stock handlebar position does not require me to reach for the bars much.

So love the look and I enjoy the sensation of a more open air feel however I don't think you would want to tour far with this setup or ride in cold weather with it but otherwise an awesome product. Thanks Jay.

Yep I thought so. I brought it home and put it on and hid the stock shield in the cabinet. Did not tell wife I bought it yet figure I will wait until she notices.  :-X
