Default Got my new Clearview in 2 weeks

I ordered a Clearview 9 1/2 inch recurved smoke-tint 2 weeks ago....they said that there would be a 4 week wait since they were back oredered....I got it today !

It took no time to install it....took my scooter out for a short putt...all's well. I'm 5'10' and the view I have now totally changed thefeel of the experience for the better. For me there's barely an extra touch of wind on my faceas well....

thanks to all of you that gave me your opinions in a previous post...

fyi - the smoke tint is kinda bronze which I think goes perfect with the copperhead pearl and red hot paint scheme...

more riding this weekend...pics will come later too

Now I'm pissed. Please keep good news to yourself so you don't upset all us guys patiently waiting.

Wait, if I'm supposed to be patiently waiting, why am I pissed?

Congrats, hope my 8" recurve comes soon.

Man, you must have got mine. I ordered the same shield over three weeks ago and still don't have it. Of course this is Montana; the last stop on the Stagecoach North. Everything I order takes two business days longer than they estimate. Sounds like they work good though, so I'm anxiously awaiting.

Ordered mine April 16, shipped April 22. 9.5" clear recurve.

Noticeable reduction in wind on buffeting.

yep...now I'm really considering myself as lucky...

I do have another question if anyone out there can help...

I've read all the posts and instructions about how to embed a pic of my scooter into my posts...but everytime I do that, it only comes out as a thumbnail pic....

can anyone tell me the steps I need to take to add a pic so that it displays as great as Buttman's as well as all the others that show up so well in their posts ?

I'll post a new pic as soon as I can this weekend

thanks

here's a pic without the Clearview
