Many thanks to Winyoochanok! I received the windshield in under 2 weeks! Clearly Winyoochanok take pride in making them! It was well wrapped, well packaged and protected, and the screen fits well. :tup::thanks:
In contrast, I also received today an aviation handheld radio from an auction website and the seller sent it in a shoebox with no bubble wrap of any kind! It bounced around and put scratches into the acrylic screen and a deep gouge in the black plastic case. Talk about night and day difference between Winyoochanok and his pride in workmanship vs. the seller of the radio. I haven't taken the bike for a ride yet, but I can already see that it will send a lot more wind around me than the stock windscreen. When I get a chance to take it for a ride, I'll report back on whether any buffeting to the shoulders still occurs. |
Thanks for reporting the excellent customer service. :) Please do report back after you have a chance to test the wind protection. ;)

I agree. Winyoochanok is a true craftsman and top quality fabricator.

Only a quick ride this morning, but I can report that Winyoochanok's windshield, as Detours reported, does divert a good amount of air around the shoulders and over the helmet. Buffeting is reduced, and the bike is steady at speed (reinforcing that the steering head wobble is rider induced.)
I sit taller than most (long torso), but found the windshield helped direct a good amount of air over the helmet, but enough air still came over the windshield to help direct fresh air to me. I had worried that I might need to switch to the stock windscreen in summer... but as of now, I think this windshield is good for all seasons. |

I prefer a clear windscreen rather than a tinted one so I asked Winyoochanok if he would make one for me. No problem; quick delivery.
https://redhawk47.smugmug.com/photos...phqmj3s-X2.jpg but hard to photograph. Snow on the road and too cold to ride, so I haven't tried it out yet. The front brake master cylinder does bump the windscreen before the hardstop. Probably not a real problem. I sit tall also; if the screen doesn't get the wind above my helmet I will add a X-creen - from Twisted Throttle. |
Looks awesome in clear, redhawk! My brake cylinder bumps too, but only at full lock and it hasn't been a problem for me.
|
X2; the clear windshield looks great. :)
