RE: Plexi 2 windscreen
You know Charlie, you can always trim a bit off the top to get the air flow to suit you. I have one that on several shields. I have a stock shield for my ST 1300 that I cut 5 1/2 inches off the top for more air flow in the summer. I also cut down the stock shield on my FZ-1.

Meowguy, you can always get a piece that adds a couple inches to the top and tilts, but can't for the life of me remember what they are called. I think they come standard on the new Suzuki 650 VStrom Adventure

Today I can afford the gas, but with a small tank, it would make touring a PITA to stop for gas so often. And I'd still like to get better mileage than I would in a car.


Rboe, I think CA200 has reported his mileage has increased pretty significantly since installing his NC full screen. Maybe they are more aerodynamically shaped now?

Wow! Mine looked more like the GT which is more like a barn door. Good to hear that progress has been made in thirty years. Smile
