Default Fastaire

Just thought I would put out a few lines on Fastaire. I talked to the owner on Tuesday after having some issues with other shield companies. He shipped me a new sheild 6" and it arrived two days later. Right away, you can see the quality difference between this and his competitors. This shield is MUCH thicker and more rigid. On the bike, it does a GREAT job. I have had a 6.5 Klockwerks that cost almost twice as much for the past few months. This sheild does just as good a job (if not better) at half the price. I highly recommend looking at Fastaire if you are looking to upgrade your current sheild!

I've been running a Fastair for about 3 years now. Has held up well. No complaints, especially for the price.

I just got my new Aero shield today. I called and spoke to Jim on thursday morning, placed my order and it shipped from Reno Nevada to Detroit Mi. in 2 days! I also bought one of his nice windshield trim bars for my fairng. Nice stuff. Good quality.
Jim is a good dude. He is more than willing to take the time to answer any questions you might have and make certain you are satisfied with whatever you might need. He is a one man operation and runs the business from his home/garage. His prices are really fair for the quality he gives you.

... have used Jim's shields in the past on other bikes i have owned...this is the first time I actually needed a new windshield since he has come out with his Aero version...when i am done posting here i am gonna head out to my backyard, go in my garage and get that baby put on.

I would definately give Fast-Aire the Thumbs-up.
