The all fit like a shoe on a turkey. For god's sake if you're going to ride a Night Train, don't expect the creature comforts of an Ultra. I realize it is your bike and you may do with it as you wish, but they look goofy with a windshield.

Don't desecrate a 'Train with a piece of plastic.


Let the flamin" begin.

People here just try to help others, and expect others to try to help them. God bless ya!

Hey Clammy I know what you mean with the amount ofwind coming up from underneath the windshield it was almost more comfortable to ride without it then it was with it. And I couldn't find a thing for deflectors to fit a Springer so Idesigned and mademy own.

I didn't flame anyone. It is only my opinion. Do with it what you will. I have a train and it will NEver see a windshield. Want to put one on yours, knock yourself out.

Those look pretty cool!

I have no problem riding all day without a windshield, but when it gets really windy or cold, it'd be nice to have the option... I may puck up another one someday.

Cheers!

As I get more experience with the Windvest, I have some things to add.
It fits in perfect with my bike, and looks was more important than total function.

But.... it isn't what I would use to go coast to coast with.
It blocks the wind on your chest, keeps grit out of your face and keeps my eyes dry. I am an "intown" rider 90% of the time, so it's perfect for me.
At full speed, it relieves wind pressure on your chest and face, but theturbulence from underneath will take your breath away sometimes. It's not a 75mhp windshield.

IMHO Night Trains look best with nothing on them. No bags. No back rest. Single seat. & me sittin’ on it.

Keep ‘em clean. That’s the beauty of the Train.

U want a full dress? Get a bagger.

Careful. Apparently they're not too fond of dissenting opinions here.
