Dang it... looks like I'm probably headed to Omaha instead of Hawaii... guess I should have taken advantage of the sale and got a shield   >:(

Bill the Air Force for the difference.  :huepfenlol2:  Ha ha ha, I crack myself up sometime.



 FWIW, Cee B. has had a couple of sales in the last month. Perhaps they'll have another before too long.

Guess the two shields you mentioned in reply#20 didn't get trashed after all  :nixweiss:

No did not trash the shields , selling instead, got the OK from Cee Bailys to sell as Demos. (proto types)  Doc

I think it would be better to trash them , if they are really not symetric and badly shaped . Who would have such a shield on a 32k bike ? This should be a poor man ( but with a 32 k scooter , wonder how this work )  ::)

UPDATE:  I just got my invoice for the 14" Dark and low & behold...they charged me the sale price of $218 including shipping when I ordered it a week before the sale for $277!  I'd say CB is pretty Straight Up in my book :2vrolijk_21: :2vrolijk_21: :2vrolijk_21:  They more than made up for the early pricing SNAFU :2vrolijk_21: :2vrolijk_21: :2vrolijk_21:

I will say they are great.

I was quoted 258 with shipping.

Then they shipped it and billed me for 218. :coolblue:

Very honest and good of them.  Their service was very good.

It was easy to put on the bike and fit very good.

I have not had a chance to ride it with the shield yet, and will not get to until Saturday as I am in Houton since Sunday.

Installed the 14" Dark and test drove the bike.  It's just okay with the 3/4 helmet and with the full helmet I get pretty good wind noise and vibration of the face shield where if I'd been wearing sunglasses they'd have been blurring my vision pretty bad.  I think the height and design of the helmet had play in this.  The top of the shield vibrates at 50-65 bretty bad as well.  Looks great but doesn't compare with the Clearview Stock height which is superior in function.  I'm 5' 11".

Thanks for the update I just installed a 14 in its two cold here to test it, but the configeration is really similar to the Klock werks that I hated, I sold my Clear view when I ordered the Cee Baileys. The Clearview was great, I wasn't happy with the look maybe I will have to forgo form for function, if mine vibrates at road speeds its history.

Not to defend the Cee Bailys shield at all, but Mine is rock solid with no vibrations at all at any speed, I am 6.1" and wear a half helmet and sunglasses only and have no buffetting. I wonder if its a windshield hieght thing?  I have found my last windshield with the 14" Dark tint Cee Bailys shield, but I do like to look over a sheild rather than thru it. I do not get the same effects as you are experincing.    Doc

 Just a suggestion but when I recieved my 09 SERG from the dealer my fairing was vibrating pretty badly. I got home and seen the the lower fairing brackets were not lined up in center of fairing, I losened the lower chrome fairing bracket bolts and started the bike while upright off the stand and the brackets centerd themshelfs, I them tighted the bolts and the fairing has not vibrated since.  Doc
