Default Mini-apes and Windvest

Getting my 12-inch mini-apes on Wednesday, on my '06 FLST, and just ordered 14X14 Windvest. Busted my Memphis Shades fairing all to hell in soft sand (long story). Surprisingly little damage otherwise (another long story).

Anyway, I'm anxious to get apes on and to see how Windvest works. I must have read a hundred posts about hated windshields.

Will post pics and results later this week.
