Love the new Xscreen, much better wind deflection especially at speed

WTF a wee windshield humping a big windshield you are going to end up with a medium windshield.

Yeah I know mate, I could of changed the whole windscreen but thought id try this, my bro has one on his Californian guzzi and loves it. Its great so far and unlike a new larger screen I can adjust this up or down and the deflection angle to exactly were I want it for best wind deflection....so far so good always have the option for a larger screen if this didn't work.

Tallie I have been looking at one of those how about an update on what you think about it. I noticed you got the clamps instead of drilling the screen. Since I now have 2 bikes that would probably be a better option allowing me to move it back and forth. Would you agree? Thanks They have them on the Revzilla site for anyone thinking this is a good idea.

Hi Billy, sure mate. For me I love the xscreen, Ive taken the bike up to 150kmh to see how it would handle the speed. It handled it great. There still is a bit of wind obviously but its much more acceptable now and the bike is much more enjoyable to ride As I mentioned in an earlier post its really good to be able to adjust it to varies heights and you can get it just right for yourself, I could probably get rid of more of the wind but I like some wind in my face. I didn't like the idea of drilling my stock screen in case down the track if I sell the bike a new shorter owner might like to take the xscreen off and they wont have the drilled holes in the stock screen. The mounting kit only cost me around $50 for the clamps, money well spent I think. I bought the screen and clamp kit from Tim from Aussiebiker.com at Noosa in Queensland, I think all up it cost me around $260 AU. My honest opinion is you wont be disappointed if you give this a go. Id like to hear your thoughts if you decide to go down this track and yes it wouldn't be difficult to move from one bike to another if that's what you would like to do to..... Hope this helps...cheers

Thanks, I was looking at this for my America. I have not taken delivery on the R3T yet. I am storing it at the dealer I purchased it from last week for the winter. I am only 5'8" so I may not need it on the Rocket, but if need be I will have it. Clamps are the way to go. Enjoy your summer down under and post some stuff so those of us in the northern hemisphere can live vicariously through your exploits.
