    When I go on multi-day trips, it's kinda nice to have a windshield on the bike. In the past, I had a "Slipstreamer Spitfire Sport Shield S-06" on, but with the large headlight, I had to angle it back so far to make it work, it was mosly ineffective.

    Anyone out there want to recommend one they have owned that worked well? Thanks.

    a company called MRA, sells nice universal windsheilds,
    they are mounted on rods which slide, clamped on to the forks, with ball sockets at the windsheild, quite easy to set nicely

    i have a streetsheild i believe on my 550

    I mounted a Memphis Shades chopped windshield on my bobber and it works very well for wind protection.

    I had to make my own mounts however. I use a set of mounting rods from the windshield to the handlebars that came off of another windshield I had. And the bottom brackets are just 1/2" aluminum flat stock from the windshield to the lower triple tree clamps. It's good and solid and a hell of alot better than riding without one.
