Windshield fit
Windshield fit
Hello all, this may sound like a dumb question but I have never owned a windshield. OK
I purchased a windshield from eBay not knowing the part#, but for $75 I figured it was a steal anyways. Now I have the windshield and the clamps are not the same as my forks. My question is will any windshield fit any bIke given it has the right quick release clamps? Or are windhsields specific based on the bike? I'm thinking I can just take off the small quick release clamps, sell them and buy the right size clamps.
Any advice I can get will be great.
Thanks

The biggest thing is the spacing between where the headlight goes and the top of the shield, as compared to the designed mounting points. With the right hardware, a jig saw and and drill... you can make anything 'fit'

Make sure your turn signals are not "inside" the plexiglas. If they are, and you ride at night, when you activate a turn signal, it's going to
