Easy question
#1

I'd like to buy a Parabellum sport windshield for my 2014 CB1100 standard. I see it advertised for the 2013...Emailed company last week asking if it also fits the 2014 as I hear it has a larger tach and speedo. No answer so far...If anyone has used this on a 2014 and it fits as it should, please let me know.

Many thanks.

Well the picture they show on Ebay looks like it is mounted on a 14 Deluxe. The gauges look like they are the 14 gauges. Have you tried calling?

Thanks for posting photo of the windshield and thanks for saying the gauges look like 2014 ones..I will call them tomorrow...they never answered my email to them...I have a parabellum on my BMW K75,not as tall as the one I intend to buy and it does a marvelous job of shielding me from the wind and turbulence.

Ok called and ordered the parabellum sport tinted one in the 22" height even though I am just 5'9". I am elderly and like as still a pocket of air behind the shield as possible. $283 shipped to door. It will ship in two working days. I'll post a comment on how I like it once I get it installed.

Ok, windshield arrived yesterday late and two of us installed it today in about 30 minutes. Solo installing might well be very difficult as sometimes we needed all four of our hands. It is the 22" high one. at 5'9" I still look over the top. There were no written instructions but they sent two 8 x 10" inch photos showing how things fit up and we had no problems getting it done. I rode the bike with my earplugs in as usual and also with heavy gloves and so far it functions as well as any windshield I've ever had on my 22 bikes since 2008. There is no buffeting whatever and noise is also very faint. It looks just like the windshield shown on the link posted in this thread. I don't have ready means to take a photo.

All in all, I am most satisfied.

Bokobob you ARE the man. I am sorry i haven't replied earlier. I teach an I am at the end of the semester. I am in VA near the Kerr Res. I have a parabellum as well on my 2014 Black CB. I bought the 18" and the 10" (the two-fer deal).The 10 inch is tinted an cool looking. The 18" is everything you say++
I had mine painted to match. Huge pain-well worth it. I do have pictures I think I can send you. My teenager can help his dopey dad.
Like it so much, the Wife is getting one for a Christmas gift painted to match the purple Bonnie.
My season is extended and riding is virtually wind-less.

OOPS I bought the scout, very similar though in design.
