Ordered Thursday, arrived today. Fits like a glove round the headlamp, no head buffeting at 60mph. Easy install (as long as you do the bar mounts first) I was so pleased I called them up and voiced my feelings. Cost $259. :hammer:

Cool sheild, alway's read good thing's about Parabellum. Alway's told myself if I ever got a full on sheild for the bonnie it would be one of their Scout Fairings....




...maybe when I'm old

cool- seems a little tall though, aren't you supposed to look overtop the windshield? I was thinking about getting a scout, but can't afford it, especially painted.

Let us know how it performs at 80 mph

Did someone say Parabellum??? :-D

Loved mine. Although it did create an odd buffeting wind pattern with a passenger. Not sure why. But one up was smooth.

Wasn't too tall for me,at 6'2" the top is level with the bridge of my nose. Too cold for an 80mph test here in freezing Florida. Will keep you informed, should be in the 70s by Thursday

I bought the 22" tall sport shield and rode with it for a couple of weeks, marked it for the height I wanted and shipped it back to Parabellum. They trimmed it down to the height desired and shipped it back. Trim was free, yes I paid shipping which was a total of 20 bucks. I'd do it again.

Ya, but then again, you feel the same way about that Duc I posted. :razz: :-D

well, I think form should follow function, but it shouldn't have to be dragged kicking and screaming...

I have a 20" sport shield and the buffeting was so bad that I had to take it off. My helmet vibrated so much that my vision was blurred at anything over 40mph. If I put my head real close to the back of the shield, there was smooth quiet air. Otherwise, you couldn't hear it thunder. By the way, I am 5'11" with a short torso - maybe that accounts for it.
