My next project I didn't want originally but figure if I can make it work, Easily
removeable and fairly decent looking, Mount an old HD windshield that was in my parts pile.

Got it mocked up tonight. Looks pretty good and will follow my goal just as my saddle bags and sissy bar. Easy on for the long drives and easy off in minutes for cruising in style. Going to do a little clean up, cutting, grinding tomorrow. I'll post some pics this weekend of the finished product.

A few pics of the final product, as far as the mount of the windshield anyway.

That looks great! Very nice, clean. Hows the wind noise and does it make your front end fell funny.

The handling is good and it really cut back on the wind noise. It makes riding
at highway speeds much more enjoyable.

Hey is that your backyard in the last photo if so that rocks, nice and open. Reminds me of mid state FL pine woods.

Yes it is my "Backyard" Have a little 9 acre yard with my house in the
middle of the woods. I love the outdoors! Going out now to try and call me
an old "Tom" turkey within gun range for an real "Earthday" dinner for the
Family.

Love it. Good for you, thats really nice that you have that for your family. My wife and I are starting with the .69 acres and our first house. I'll post some yard pics when we close the deal on the 11th of next month.
