Windshield pics thread...
« on: February 26, 2009, 10:52:30 PM »

OK guys...

I suffer from severe dry eyes and as much as I love the "as intended" look HD gave the SERG, I cannot ride this bike comfortably with that useless piece of plastic at the top of the fairing.

Can each of you put up your pictures of your aftermarket windshields... Clearview, Klockwerks, Cee Baileys, etc, along with you personal reviews with important stuff like seat, rider height & inseam, etc?

This will help us "less informed" make a better decision on what will suit us best.

I'm 5-11, 29" inseam using the stock seat (for now) but looking at a Danny gray Solo

Klock Werks 12"  Good for around town.  No good for trips.  I'm 5'11" but 33" inseam.  Have switched to the Clearview GT small.  Not as cool but functional and very well made.

Thanks Greg... we all know the OE piece is the most useless piece of plastic the MOCO has ever installed on a scoot!

You're welcome!  I think the KW would be great on the island.  If you're doing day rides and not going too fast, the KW is very cool and works well enough.  The clearview comes with hardware so it makes it easy to swap them out...

Im 5' 11" with 32 inseam, this is my Klock Werks 12 in, one of the best looking worst performing windshields I have ever owned, Their customer Service advised that the shape of the shield was designed primarily to keep the front of the bike down at High Speed rather then wind protection, he was right, I switched to a tall Clearview that performed very well, I did not take a picture but there are dozens on their website. I did not like the look of the Shield with the contours of my Fairing

This is my newly purchased CB 14" light Gray, it is similiar in appearance to the KW, it is a decent shield if you get it at the discounted price, I thought fit and finish on the Clearview was a little superior. The CB is a little lop sided I may send it back  im waiting to hear from their Service Rep. I have not been able to road test as yet so Im hoping that Turbulence is considerably less then on the KW, If it is even decent I will probably keep it on, it definately matches the bike nicely.

Here is the  Clearview stock height.  Excellent shield...great wind protection, minimal wind noise/buffeting.  I'm 5' 11" and just see over the top when leaning on the backrest.   The shield follows the line of the fairing very well which adds to the great looks from the side.

Here is the Cee Baileys everyone has been talking about...it's the 14 dark grey "smoke" windshiekd.  CB is the first to fit the shield to the SERG stock windshield gasket and the shield perform very well in the nois/buffeting catagory and they get an A++ for looks as well.  It's lower than the CV stock height but performs almost as good...it's a keeper.

Side view...it doesn't lay as far back as the CV but I believe that contributes towards it's excellent performance.
