A lot of us on this forum us the Slipstreamer Spitfire as our daily windshield on the 750's. Search for Slipstreamer Spitfire on eBay. Should cost you around $70. The 750 has 7/8 handle bar's, you'll need to know the size of the 250 before ordering. It's not that big but does a really great

We're currently shopping for a windshield, but I'm concerned about ordering one that acts more as a sail and less as a barrier. Any tips? My husband is about 5'7, and is riding on the stock seat. :) On Tuesday, March 22, 2016 at 8:51:48 PM UTC-7, EGrider wrote: > > Paul, wind is a BIG problem,

I'm also "allergic to bright lights" but I just flat refuse to sneeze in my helmet, modular or otherwise. I've found that getting angry seems to make it subside. -Kyle On Tue, Mar 22, 2016 at 11:34 PM, EGrider wrote: > Impossible to sneeze without closing your eyes. Freaks

Impossible to sneeze without closing your eyes. Freaks me out every time I do it on a bike. What's more, I'm one of those weird people who sneezes when the sun is too bright (my kids do, too). With no visor anymore, I can imagine more sneezing is in my future, and more riding in a military

Paul, wind is a BIG problem, but he'll be going east. We hit non-stop wind from about the New Mexico border, and it got so bad in California that I had to ride my 750 in third gear for a long stretch (and my gas mileage went down into the 30s with my big windshield). It was unpleasant, to say

Going through Nevada to get from SoCal to the Grand Canyon is a bit out of the way, unless he really wants to see Vegas. I did a lot of the trip you describe in May 2014. Slideshow is here with a map at the beginning if interested: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0jGu_F86q-c=youtu.be Monument

I take one of those self-sealing tire inflating aerosol cans from Walmart along. I've never used it yet, but if I picked up a nail that made me go flat and I was a distance from and exit or civilization, I would use it. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google
