When you bought and pickup your F6B, did you get a clear or dark short shield with the bike? There is a clear on mine, have not picked up the bike yet, but I thought that it would come with a dark.

Nope, only clear for all.

Thanks, I don't know where I got the idea that they came dark.

Never really thought about it till this thread came about because I don't have another to compare it to but my windshield seams to be tinted, has 2 -3" F6B lettering on the lower center and has the name Sportech w/some numbers cut into the shield in the upper right hand corner, as you sit on it. Is this stock ? Sorry, no cover, sitting in garage,dirty.

Mine definitely does not have Honda in the stamp, does yours have the F6b ?

Guess I got ripped off. Mine doesnt say F6B nor was it slightly tinted. Oh well.......

Well mine was the owners demo or so they tell me, so maybe they ordered in a different shield but I can't find a F6b shield on Sportechs web site.

That shield that says F6B on it isn't stock. This is the stock shield.

I kept my OEM. For me, it's great for summer/short rides when you want some breeze.

Can someone measure the stock shield from the top of the plastic band, see pic, at the base of the shield, to the top center. Mine measures 7 3/4" and the top 1" of the shield kind of curves up instead of the curve just naturally following the lower half of the curve, if you know what I mean, and I know you do.:icon_wink: Does this shield look familiar to anyone ? numbers and letters etched in the shield say Sportech but I can't find anything on it. When I put a level to the top of the shield the top edge is kinda even w/the half way point between my chin and lower lip. Will be interesting to see were the wind hits me when I get a chance to ride.

I rode home with the stock shield and ordered the baggershield as soon as I got home.
Stock shield is a nightmare.

The Japanese have usurped the bagger look, complete with useless windshield.
