During the video I would have pulled over and adjusted it. I use only a clean microfiber cloth on the Madstad. Use what Madstad says on it's site to clean it. You won't have any problems.
Thanks for the tip. I’ll check it out.
That is a good looking windshield. I went with the Show Chrome one available from Slingmods. It makes a huge difference as I usually wear a half helmet. I look over the shield too. Thanks for sharing this and take care.
Thanks. The show chrome looks great as well. I was debating between the 2 as it is a pain to get to the frunk with the MadStad one. How is it with the Show Chrome, also any buffeting?
@@RideAboutNow The frunk is pretty easy. There is some tilt adjustment and the lip of the frunk lid clears the shield with room to spare. I have not taken it out on the highway yet. For 55 and under it seems ok, about like the stock shield on my Yamaha V Star.
Yes sir thats the one I have
That’s cool.
What kind of gloves are u wearing they look nice and thin to get a good feel of the controls while wearing them
They are light and quite comfy and cheap considering the brand name. Alpinestars Copper Gloves $50.
The Knight Ryker awesome. Thank you
Rob James 👍🏼
have you thought about coating it with headlight UV protectant?
No I haven’t. Can you tell me where to start my research on that.
We’re the same height. How is the wind buffeting at highway speeds?
I had it set up to where I was just seeing over it and had some buffeting on the 18inch shield. I did not want to raise it any higher. I would go for the 20inch or go for the F4 customs.
Where did you get your windshield and handle guard?
Windshield was from Madstad.com and the hand guards from Can Am. The hand guards come in handy a lot.
Im shopping for one also- How tall are you? is there distortion - looking at the video it looks clear.
I am 5/9 and this is clear but my fav was the F4 customs shield that was optically correct and sharp.
What's your height?
Centex Security 5/10
Why would anyone want a windshield? The entire reason I ride is to get in the wind.
Personal preference I guess. Not to get fatigued on longer rides. A lot of debris here in Atlanta on the roads. But many Ryker riders here like the naked look and feel and have no shield.
