I decided to add a windshield to cut down on headwinds pounding into my chest at 70mph. The naked front great is fine and fun everywhere besides the freeway IMO.
I considered the Maier fairing that Bill recommended, but decided I didn't want to enclose the headlight. The Maier does look fantastic on a K bike though.
I chose the
National Cycle N2524 F-Series F-16 Light Tint Windscreen which arrived via UPS ground six days after ordering. I paid $85 though and it looks like it's less now? :hmm:
The N2524 installed easily. I loosened the headlight clamps where they clamp to the fork tubes, and disconnected the headlamp from the mounting brackets. The windshield slips between the brackets and lamp assembly. An extra small adjustable clamp thingy on each side of the windshield prevents the windshield from tilting. I had to move my horns to the lower fork tree.
The windshield does its job perfectly. At my most upright riding position I can feel a little draft on my helmet but most of the wind misses me entirely. I like the way it looks too.
I am thinking about switching back to the RT bars too. The C bars might be okay with bar-backs, but they're pretty uncomfortable for my arms. They position me in a weird mid-point. Ideally I'd be leaning a little less or more, but not exactly where they put me.
