Ordered the National Cycle Switchblade Deflector windshield for my NT a few months ago. Cant say enough good about it, great windshield, really does a lot without making the bike look too shabby.
Last week ordered the Chopped windshield from National Cycle, if you are not familiar with the Switchblade series, the premise is there are four windshields that will all work with the same mounts. Now for the reality, unless you own a NT. The windshield wont clear the turn signals, called the CS # and they said, yeah, you gotta relocate the turn signals. Fine time to tell me now. So if you are lookin for a small shield, the Deflector is great, but dont expect the others to fit. Disapointing, out some cash and some time, they will refund, but I gotta pay shipping. BS
UPDATE: Even though National Cycle support told me I would have to relocate the turn signals to the handlbar, I decided to take another look. I simply moved the turn signal below the fork crossbar instead of above. Windshield now fits like the proverbial glove. Looks like this is how they do it in the Harley catalog too, so should be okay.
Possible to get some pictures of the shields on your Train? Been thinking about something for mine to take a little pressure off the chest. You experiencing any buffeting with either shield?
