They are not a supporting vendor any more.
We got a major run around from them about their sponsorship of this forum. After contacting them many times about their sponsorship and letting their advertising go far past their contract they were removed.

They are not made out of polycarbonate. Would you really want an acrylic windshield with steel adjusting brackets in front of you? Stick with the OEM Tall with Vent, National Cycles or Klock Werks which are made out of Polycarbonate.

FYI, the canopy of the F/A-18 Hornet supersonic combat jet is made of cast acrylic. If acrylic is good enough for a military fighter jet we feel it is good enough for your motorcycle!

It more extreme situations when strength is needed, polycarbonate is used. Read the below link for a better understanding of the materials used in jet fighter canopies.

I guess My B fits into the less fast aircraft category having a single layer of acrylic.

I've gotten quite used to the looks of mine, but then again, I'm more about function than looks (which is probably why I'm okay with my beads on my seat).

While I understand that they're not a sponsor of the site, they do make a great product. I'll happily to refer to them by synonyms to avoid making anyone on the site upset, though. That said, I don't think the tire and oil companies we discuss with such vigor are sponsors either...and we use their names.

Not many people ride cycles, worrying about windshields. In a crash with a cager, we are going to lose. If we were that scared, we wouldn't be on bikes. JMO

My Mad$tad took a 2" bearing flung up from a truck tire on her maiden voyage.
Left a half moon indent on the outer shield.
Whatever the Mad$tad is made of, it works.
My experience, YMMV.
Cheers,

So is that why their name is on a banned words list?

Because they are uglier than ?

That's my guess.
