Dart Flyscreen highly recommended

I hope that at 6'1" it works well for you. I probably should have posted the disclaimer "Results may vary depending on your size and riding style". Personally I think it will do what you're looking for. I am still amazed at the difference of this little screen. It looks good and functions well without taking away from the look of the bike.

I'm somewhat short of torso, so I should be fine. I am more interested in form over function, but I expect it will achieve the intended results. Thanks again for posting this.

Does the Dart Flyscreen work with the 2014s that have the higher headlight and larger instrument/gauge pods?

It seems like a neat attachment system, but it is not cheap either (compared to screen offerings from National Cycle). However, even if it didn't improve air flow much, it does look sharp on a bike that should remain mostly "naked" IMHO.

I'm another in the 6'-1" crowd, but since my last handlebar adjustment (rotated slightly toward me), I don't seem to get any bad windblast on my chest riding sans screen of any sort. Maybe the way the air is now flowing over my arms is creating better aerodynamics?

Now, the bugs on my face screen are another story. As the name would suggest, the Dart should help with that, shouldn't it?

It looks like they are working on one for the 2014. Can't hurt to shoot them an email to inquire about it.

Yes, there is a special version of the brackets in development to fit the screen properly to the 2014. I am in correspondence with Steve from dartflyscreens.com about it.

I am sure that Steve at Dart will do his level best to accommodate the fit of the screen.

As far as bugs go, the answer is NO. Your helmet will most likely be in clean air, unless you are a super short arse, so looking through a veil of bugs will still be part of the experience. The screen does collect a mass of bugs so I guess those would normally be adorning the instrument cluster, or your lower/mid jacket front.

Steve at Dart said 5 weeks the 2014 Flyscreen should be ready

I'm looking forward to the release of the 2014 Dart model.

One reason is to get rid of the cheap plastic headlight brackets supplied by Honda. From a distance they don't look too bad, but upon closer inspection mine where missing silver paint at the front where it appeared they ground off some injection moulding flashing.
I touched up the ground areas with something that has proven invaluable to me with various bikes: Chrome Silver Nail Polish (the "all purpose" and extremely durable touch up tool).

When you buy the Dart, you essentially get durable metal headlight brackets for free!

FWIW: Steve beat his estimated time of delivery on the screens for the '13 bikes by a considerable margin.
