Title: Windshields.
Post by: sanityfree on February 09, 2004, 10:33:15 AM
Does anyone have the National Cycle F-18 windshield on their GS? I am considering ordering one, but I'd like some feedback on it if I can get it.

thanks. i'll definitely have to do more research before i buy. i want something that looks cool, but works at the same time. i'm 6'1" with stock bars. i'm not sure about putting drag bars or clip ons on it. i'll search for drag bars now.

I'm  6'3" with stock bars.  I have the F16 on my '97 GS and I feel that it helps, but primarily it helps in the cold by keeping the wind off my Jacket zipper.  when I need to (example: passing a truck on the highway), I can duck behind it for a little wind protection, but there are much more effective windscreens out there.  I went as much for looks as function  ;)
