Title: Aftermarket "Minimal" Windshield Option Post by: jnicks01 on October 28, 2019, 05:48:34 AM I just wanted to share a few photos of the new windscreen I put on. I was having trouble finding any discussions and photos of anything other than a batwing, OEM, or Clearview. Hoping this will help anyone like me that was looking for something a little more minimal but yet takes some wind off the chest.
I'm a fan of National Cycle, as I have multiple products from them, so I went with the tinted Street Shield. It takes about 45 minutes to get it set up but once it is, the hardware is sturdy and highly adjustable. My first pass was a little too vertical and created some head rattling turbulence. I adjusted it a bit more towards me and now it is perfect. I always to full face, so wanted the wind on my face shield. Mind you, I still have the OEM that I plan to use for long trips, but for my more normal few hour rides, I like the wind in my face, but off my chest. And this does the job.

I also have an extension on top to throw wind over my head cuz I wear a 1/2 helmet. Down the road I want to get a stock one for longer trips as I still get lots of air flowing on me when it gets cold.

Worked well to shield the gauges from road debris and provided a little protection for the rider too.
