Possible cheap windshield idea for the Brozz

[dubbya1986]

My buddy has made windshields out of these in the past on some of his bikes. I ordered one today and am going to give it a go. I am thinking of using 3M dual lock to secure it as it seems like the stuff is pretty strong, but I wanted some opinions. This shield doesn't way hardly anything and I really don't want to drill holes if I don't have to.

I found that Honda NC700X windshields work well on the TT250:

I saw that video earlier and was impressed. Both options are basically the same cost around 10-15 bucks. I will give that a try if this doesn't work, but I think it will.

CB500X windscreens go cheap and they are similar to the NC700X units.

i ordered a generic one off of ebay for $13 looks like it will work ill let you know when it comes in. i would think you would need at least two bolts to hold it on theres a lot of pressure on the screen.

2nd that. My shield hasn't shipped yet, so I'll cancel if this looks better.

i got one of these for my dirt bike, it came with a small tinted screen for $35. i'm sure there are bigger/nicer ones out there for next to nothing...

Got it to work. Had to turn off some redirecting program. There's a spot to click on that turns if off just look on the page.

I installed the face shield on my Brozz and it certainly made a difference. Attached it using 3M Dual lock and it has held so far with no indication of coming off. I hit 67 mph for a short time and it was as still as can be. I rode for about 1.5 hrs at mostly highway speeds.

Also got a cheap tank bag which is a perfect size for the small metal tank. It's got 6 magnets and it held without issue. Will hold 3 17 oz bottles of water to give you an idea as far as the main compartment capacity as well as still having the rain cover inside it. Has a clear fold storage area for your phone, paperwork, maps, etc. Also has a spot on the front that holds your wallet perfectly plus two additional small zip storage areas. Good little bag besides the zippers could be better It was 19.99 free shipping, but the zipper messed up on me while I was checking it out after getting it, I ended up getting a refund, but they didn't bother having me return it. Might just been luck of the draw on the zipper. Was able to get the zipper fixed and am going to use it still since it fits pretty well perfectly on the tank and doesn't get in the way at all.

Also got a 30L capacity lockable tail box coming that will mount on the rear rack. It's not the most stylish thing, but for under $27 shipped it comes with all the hardware and will hold a lot of stuff and appears to be durable. Has a quick release and carrying handle and built in reflector plus a mounting hardware.

I have two very similar JCW trunks that I use as side cases on my CB500X when I am riding the streets. Pretty good trunks.
