    Little windshield deflector add on?

    There was a fairly recent thread on a little deflector being used with some success. But I'm having one of those senior moments. Anyone know what it's called or who makes it?

    Are you thinking of the MRA X-Creen Touring windshield extension?

    MRA X-CREEN

    That's it, did a 6000 mile trip with it, worked like charm.

    That looks interesting.

    I ordered a medium sized gray tinted Clearview recurve; but now wish I ordered the large one instead. I am getting some head buffeting (not severe) at the moment... but it is mitigated somewhat by different helmet designs.

    Maybe I'll try that deflector. Not sure how it's going to work with a recurve shield though....

    This add-on shield idea is interesting. But, a lot of us have enough shields or parts of shields that all we need are the brackets.

    So, I did some searching and found these:

    They are supposed to be about 4" and looks like they could be made to work. Any guinea pigs out there?

    Yep, just place the template on, drill the holes, tighten it down and you're good. It should take 20 minutes in all.

    I told you I ordered the large one! This way you can put the large one in the lowest setting. Is your medium in it's highest setting?

    From the pictures this looks small for an Adventure bike windscreen. Do you have a pic?
