NC Street Shield EX

[flynrider]

Ferret, you seem a pretty shmucking smart consumer...

can you in easy terms explain the difference between the street shield ex and the deflector screen ex?

It's all in the size. Originally, I thought I wanted a Street Shield. After getting the size specs from the website and doing some modeling with a ruler and paper cutouts, I realized that I wanted something more along the lines of the Deflector. The website says :


Street Shield EX :
Height: 18.00 in. (45.8cm)
Width: 19.25 in. (48.9cm)

Deflector DX :
Height; Headlight Cutout to Top of Screen: 15.50 in. (39.3cm)
Width; Across Back at Widest Point: 15.00 in. (38.1cm)

Note : The Street Shield without the quick release mounting system (non-EX) is considerably smaller than the EX version :

Street Shield :
Height: 17.0 in. (43cm)
Width: 16.5 in. (41.9cm)

Edit : Almost forgot. The Street Shield uses a 4 point mount (2 handlebar, 2 fork leg), while the smaller Deflector uses just 2 handlebar mounting points.
