has anyone ever done this?

i have a 2005 cityx but i want to put the front stock uslysses windscreen on mine so i dont get hit by as much wind. I have a luminar windscreen but it doesnt take that much wind away :(

Neither does the stock Uly shield, puts it right in my chest

I've seen it done. You would either need to replace the bigger side brackets too so the screen bolts right up, or if you're not a perfectionist you could just drill new holes and bolt it to yours. I looked at them when I was looking for a short term screen for a weekend road trip but they're definitely not too big. Even the bigger Slipstreamer Spitfire screen I bought doesn't do all that much. I can tuck behind it, but when I'm just riding upright like normal I don't notice much of a difference. Are you getting cold or just tired of the wind noise, because some ear plugs and a jacket liner might be the way to go.

just kinda tired of getting pelted by wind but maybe it was just because of the wind.

I just like to ride open in the wind.

For me there is more logic in feeling the ride, than feeling afraid of getting a speed ticket.

For me I just like to ride from terrace to terrace. Enjoy the vibration and looks.

Why buy a new R1 which reaches 148kmh in first gear? Knowing that it has 6!
Before reaching the play-area of it_s power I would loose my license.

It just does not make sense to me.

I enjoy people puzzled on the engine size. And disbelieve when I tell them it has 1200+cc.
Well, until I start my bike...

Life is about emotions. And our bikes just have it.

yes very true i love my bike its great. oh and would anyone like to trade mirrors? i have a set of bar end mirrors

[dallasb]

What kind of bar ends are they? Also what kind of mirrors are you looking for?

[kdub41]

i forget the make but i just saw them and they are like normally 70 bucks and i would like either stock mirrors or just something a little bigger
