vstream windshield, how much taller and wider than stock on 2013?

[copdocpvd]

I picked up a Cee Bailey's that I like for the summer, but can imagine my hands turning into icicles in colder weather, am thinking maybe a vstream for the fall and winter.

I've looked all over the manufacturer and sales websites, can't find anything other than "24.1 inches" for size description.  If you have one, how much taller than the 2013 stock (tall?) windshield if any, and how much wider?  Are you happy with yours?


thanks in advance!

I have a V-Stream, but I don't have a stock (2010+) shield to get the measurements you're asking for.

But if you're just looking for something to keep the cold air off of your hands, just buy or make yourself some handwings. Do a search for them here and you'll find that there are a few different ones available. I personally made my own. You can see what I did here: http://www.zggtr.org/index.php?topic=10501.msg128285#msg128285

I have the v-stream and the corners of the stock shield are the same height and the top of the v-stream is 1.5 inches above the stock shield which is more "squarish shape".  The wide of the stream at the top curve is 1.5 inches wider on each side.  I can post pics late tomorrow (am helping my folks in a house move).  I am very happy with the v-stream although the stocker is not that bad.  I am 5 foot 11 inches with a 32 inch seam if that helps.

I too have both.  I like them both for different reasons.  The V is better on the highway and better for a pillion.  It gets in the way of my line of sight when in the twisties though.

The V has a bit mote of an hourglass shape as well.

Change over is 5 min so not a big deal that each has strengths.

Thanks, guys!

I thought about the hand guards, but every listing I've seen for them says "will not work with aftermarket windshields" and I picture the bike going into "windshield retract" and destroying the cee bailey's screen (or worse, the windshield mechanism)
