I am thinking about adding a cruiser to my garage. Not sure yet between the BA or Speedmaster. I know that the Triumph windscreens for the Bonnie Black etal. are pretty much useless. What other options have been found to be a good fit for the BA or Speedy? Also are hard bags available? Thanks.

Memphis Shades makes a few styles of windshields. People seem to like the Memphis Fats. Fast Eddy has some. He is great to work with. http://www.fasteddysports.com/order/...phisShades.htm As for hard bags, Brent at Newspeedmaster has some. http://www.newspeedmaster.com/html/hard_bags.html BTW, get the America. It is dead sexy!!

Depending on your height, the Triumph Summer Screen on the America is also quite useless. Can't comment on bags.

Regards,

Tom

I have the Windvest for my Speedmaster and it's great. They have their own web site.

I picked up the Roadmaster screen from Triumph. Since I'm just over 6 feet in height it's ok but not perfect. I couldn't find dimensions for the shield. I end up with some buffeting topside of the helmet. It is still way better than nothing for long hauls.

I really wanted the mounting hardware so that I could purchase a larger Clearview shield later on (direct bolt on). Living so far from the action limits ones ability to choose. Pictures just don't cut it.

Will be in Indianapolis in July. Hope to see some of the triumph accessories in various shops along the way.

Just finished 2 days of riding with my new GIVI A600 screen and really liked it not one bug in the face or on my glasses.At first had it set so i could just see over the top but then adjusted it is at about chin level like that better.My 2 buddies were very buggy on there helmets with no screens. :-D
