Yet Another Windscreen Thread - Slipstreamed

[flynrider]

The MRA is much smaller but creates more turbulence, even with the Laminair Lip while providing no additional protection for the hands. At least mounted on the CB.

The lower fork mounting system for the Slipsteamer is sub-standard and I find that in this application wanting. Big time. So I fabricated some new mounts that use the upper fork pinch bolts. The only problem I have not addressed yet is some rubbing on the instrument cluster. Here's a couple shots to show what I've done. I think I'll keep them natural and not paint them black.




I mocked up the mount with cardboard first, cut to length, marked and drilled the holes, shaped the ends with the belt sander, beat into submission, I mean bent the angles with a BFH* and my Workmate (no vise, all these years and no shop vise!!).

*BFH Big Frickin' Hammer - or roughly translated as a Harley Davidson fine adjustment tool....

Hah! Haven't heard that one in awhile. Back in ye olden days, we referred to a 16 lb. sledge hammer as a Harley Davidson fine adjustment tool
