Try a windshield for free....

[Walker18]

  It is official,  I handed off the large to Walker18 (Jim) at the Phillipsburg NJ Quaker Steak and Lube!

I now have possession of the large screens, the next that I see on the list are:
1) Stephen.G.Fiddes
2) Rixtrix

Please correct if this isn't right..

  I just got the mediums....packed extremely well!  I put on the med Cee Baily and tried to go for a ride.....a few miles out the wind knocked a tree down.....I stopped and helped get the smaller limbs off the road and could only go a few miles more.....too windy to get a good idea of how it works.  Sucks because tomorrow is going to be a good 15* cooler but I still plan to try it out.  Will keep the board posted.  Looks like the med shields are just about an inch or so larger then the stock 2010 up......hoping the way they are made makes the difference. 

[Stephen.G.Fiddes]

Woohoo I'm next for both!! (Exactly what I wanted too so I could test all of them at the same time. Glad it worked out that way as I'm double dipping with someone else.)

USER - WHAT THEY WANT TO TRY

Walker18 - Currently in posession of Large screens
JimH - Currently in posession of Medium screens



Stephen.G.Fiddes - Medium and Large
Rixtrix - Large

[Walker18]

Yo, Steve!!
I need your address to ship the large screens to you..
PM me with it, and they'll be sent in short order..

I'm sticking with the Vstream, wish it was about an inch and a half taller, but it's fine, I adapt quick..
When I bought my new to me 2012, it came with Baker wings, and Kawi's clear side wings, so the
Vstream fits nicely with this combo. Man, I LOVE this bike!

Going to hold onto the larges until I get the mediums, then I'm having a meet with a few guys to do a test day, that way we get the most out of having the windscreens in the area!

There's a big box heading your way, held together by pounds of tape. I stripped off what I could,
and got the shipping weight down to about 65lbs, but then I put the shields in the box and...
Just kidding.. Good luck, and thanks to all the participating members, these shields are still
making the rounds!

I finally got to test between the weird weather, cold, wind, rain, both....not much time doing all but they all are better then stock but not right for me....I like the larger CB Ultra Tour dome.  Still playing with stock shield to see if I can shorten now.....spring project. 

   Need your shipping info Stephen.G.Fiddes....should be out on their way by Monday at the latest.

[Walker18]

Stephen, did you receive the shields? Just want to know so I can throw away the PO paperwork!

[Jim H]

 He will be in shield heaven soon....packed up the mediums and looking to get out tomorrow...

Thanks to all who have helped in this endeavor!  Fantastic.....amazing the difference in shields. 

Jim

[Jim H]

  Stephen, mediums sent this afternoon....will pm you with tracking USPS.

[Stephen.G.Fiddes]

Stephen, did you receive the shields? Just want to know so I can throw away the PO paperwork!

Yup, got them!  Thanks! 



By the way, I noticed it was quite expensive for the windshields to be shipped USPS... My suggestion is for people to try to ship UPS or Fedex if/ when possible. It should be less than $15 to ship each package across the country, and a similar price if both are taped together going to the same place... I used to work in shipping at a company regularly sending similar shape and weight packages (sometimes much heavier).

Also, avoid Postal Annex or "The UPS Store" because they charge an extra $20 or so just to process the package for you!  Ridiculous!!! 

I have a hookup where I used to work that I will be shipping from, I will see if I can remember to record the weights of each package and post them here, then you can go online and  pay for shipping with UPS or FedEx online and either drop it off or schedule a pickup at your house. It is SO much cheaper that way.

when I last shipped them USPS was actually way less expensive

[Stephen.G.Fiddes]

I have both sets now... Honestly, it may be a couple few weeks before I actually get to the meetup... I'm in the middle of Annual training with my Army National Guard unit, and right after thats complete my wife and I are moving into our new house!  (WOOHOO!!)   As soon as possible after the garage at the new place is somewhat put together I'll get together with the guys so I can get them shipped to the next person.


PS, Anyone in the beaverton area shoot me a PM if you want to test these when I do the meetup.


RIXTRIX!   Do you Only want the larges?  Or the mediums too?  It will be a little bit cheaper for me to ship them both to you together when I'm done with them.  (Early January at the VERY latest, I'll try to get them out sooner tho, depends on when the local meetup happens.)

[Rixtrix]

Hi Stephen-Yes..just the large please as I have already tried the mediums !

[Stephen.G.Fiddes]

I feel like a giant jerk-face... It'll be a couple more weeks... I am sorry.  Between bad weather and moving and the army, haven't gotten them tested yet... Will let you know! (Should FINALLY be able to next weekend.)

[Rixtrix]

No worries on the wait-it'll be a while before I can use them up here ! Take your time. Besides-I've been eyeing the bi-xenon upgrade you did-think I'm going to do it over the winter ! And as an aside-Thank You for your service to our country !

[Rony6ble]

So, how does this work?
Is there a list or?

I would like to try larges...

Thanks

[Stephen.G.Fiddes]

Well, now there's a list

Rixtrix - Large
Rony6ble - Large


Are you sure you don't want to try the mediums too?  Most guys want to do both in the end.

[almightys]

I'd like to get on the list for the Large and/or Mediums, please
