I was able to view it, but I had to right-click and select "view image" to have it show up (I use Netscape).

In any case, they way you have it mounted, it does look too high to me. But, it also looks like you could have mounted it several inches lower. Am I wrong?

This is the link to the picture: Screen Pic

I would like to see it from some different angles and farther back, but I think I like it so far.

looks to high. Maybe you can mount it a little lower to make it shorter.

Thanks. Iwill take more pics and post them when I get a chance.

I went on a long ride on Sunday and what a difference. I am no loger having to fight the wind at over 80mph. Sure makes it more comfortable on longer rides.

I do think however that it is a bit too high .. i think i will try it a litle lower and find a way to plug the holes drilled.

Thats the one I have been trying to get for weeks and weeks!!
I called today and they said it was flagged as possible security issue because it was with a tank bag :???:

10 days ago they called me and told me it would be at my house last Tuesday :razz:


Jokes on me, but could you get a side view so I can tell them to keep trying, or send it back across the pond :wink:

STRider,

Don't fill the holes. They will be barely visible through the dark tint and you can then just move it to the higher position when you go on longer rides and need more wind protection.

But please take pics once you move it down so we can see what it looks like then.
