Cut Down NS EX Shield

[IndianRider_imp]

I'm trying to fine tune my NC deflector shield and I'm pretty close to my preference esp at freeway speeds

Disclaimer : this is how I set up my tilt on an empty private road and am only sharing my experience only and do not recommend it on public roads ..

Loosen the front knobs that set the angle of the shield and once you get up to about 50,60 or 70 mph use your left hand to change the tilt of the screen and try to find the position that you like at a given speed .. Lock the shield knobs to your liking ..

After trying to set up the shields on numerous bikes in the past, my assumption is that there will never be perfect setup for all conditions and each day is a different variable / riding condition .. Getting close is pretty good for me .. I feel that trying to block the wind AND reducing the buffeting/ helmet noise is a fine compromise and may not be possible,to get both spot on ..

I tried cutting taller shields on other bikes ONLY if they did not have the tilt function .. if you have the tilt function try adjusting tilt before chopping the shield as a basic starting point ..

The biggest problem is the final tilt may NOT go with the look you desire so ill be looking to replace the deflector with a tall puig in the near future and make some custom brackets to get the puig to tilt more ..

Cheers and good luck ..
