RE: Piranha vs. classic flyscreen - Frulk_imp - 01-25-2021
With or without a Dart or RC 2 on my 2013 I’ve only ever averaged high 40s for mileage. I don’t particularly hammer the CB while riding but at 235 pounds and at 4500 feet altitude at a minimum that may be the best I can hope for. While I have the RC2 currently mounted on the bike I always liked the way the Dart looked just a little more. Particularly in the darker shade.

Just clicked the buy button. Heck, I'd be crazy not to buy it!
I'll report back with some pics of the Classic vs the Piranha, and riding impressions.

Received an email that my new screen has been "dispatched". What a regal way to let me know it's in the mail.

Indeed comforting.
Better than, " ... has been scratched ... ".

Dispatched is such a versatile word. It can mean put in the post, sent home (as in children or pets) or popped in the garbage (as in noxious weeds or rotting fish heads) or even, if you're a gangland boss, terminated. Most of you won't be aware, but whenever I ban a user from the forum, I have to send a message to Don Ferret and let him know that "[insert user name] has been dispatched."

Or, as Terry Thomas said, you could press on with all possible dispatch.

That too!

My '14 had a classic on it when I bought it. Wind noise in my helmet was insane. Liked the looks of the Marlin so bought one of those. Wind noise even worse. Both worse than running naked. Even naked, the 1100 is noisier than my good ol' 750 Nighthawk, which makes no sense. I will probably sell both of the screens. Trying to decide what to try next. Thinking about the MRA Vario Shield. Has anybody tried one of those?
