    F6B Whithout windshield

    20220423_095904.jpgHello,
    When it's hot I just take the screen off.
    It's a lot cooler and the stereo is a lot better.
    I think it looks good too, what do you think?

    The F6B definitely looks good without a windshield, but I can't hear the stereo very well with the wind noise at highway speeds.

    I think the stock short shield would look better IMO. But it's your bike.

    To be REALLY nit-picky...The bike looks GREAT in that picture, with the right mirror blocking the view of the open seam where the windshield should be. I'm betting is would not be as pleasing to see when looking at it from an angle that shows the opening. But definitely, it's your ride so enjoy.

    I ride with a 1/2 helmet, and tshirt. Them bugs hurt if you don't have a windshield moving the air away from you. Reminds my of my old enduro days only I tend to ride faster on my F6B than I did an enduro.

    Looks great! Road debris, wind noise, rain and bugs keep me from doing that though...

    Really looks much different without, more then I would ever guess. I like it either way, now if we can figure a way to mount the mirrors under the handgrips like the Harley guys were doing a few years back.

    I do like the look. The rounded dash with the the front headlights looks like the bike is lurching forward even when it's not moving.

    I would do this if it was quick and easy. I road my Honda VTX 1800R with or without a quick release Memphis Shades windshield, depending on the speeds and environment.
