CalVin aftermarket windshields?

[FastGoose]

I'm looking to upgrade to something that actually blocks the wind instead of just forcing it into my upper chest and face. I added a Laminar Lip a few months ago and while it helped a tiny bit, it has not really addressed the problem. I like to to use my 3/4 and 1/2 helmets on occasion but this stock w/s just makes that something for very short rides, at best. Any suggestions?

Thanks.

From Harpers Moto Guzzi. The H&H works great. Pricey but worth it. Some may suggest the rifle wind screen. Nice one too!

Thanks for the quick reply. I saw the Swanee reproduction at Harper's but they are way out of my budget range. Plus, I think a modification is necessary to get it to fit the CalVin properly and for that kinda dough, you'd think Harper's would offer something to have it fit from the get-go. :o
I'll have a look at the Rifle ones. Thanks!

Might also try Gustafsson   http://www.bikescreen.com or  California Science   http://www.calsci.com/
I have used both and have been very pleased with both and prices are reasonable. If they do not list a screen specifically for the Cal 1400 contact them anyway as they may be working on it. That is what happened with Cal Sci when I first got my 2011 Norge.

Rifle has many options (width, height, tint) for Calvin windshield replacements. They bolt on to the stock mounts and only cost $160. I added Vetter Pop-Vents to mine...Pop Vents reduce buffeting and provides some heat relief in the summer: about $40, delivered. $200 for the whole shootin' match...

harpers H&H is worth it

and doesn't require any modding.

sorry just remembered

you have to lose the fog lights

or make some brackets if you want to keep them

Does anyone have any experience with Batwing fairings from Memphis Shades?

I took the stock windshield and laid it down as low as it would go and it helped.

Jerry, I have no experience with them, but this thread touches on the Vintage/batwing coupling...

No modification needed except moving the Spotlights which are mounted to the original windshield brackets not the bike.

Don't think of it as a Swanee reproduction, more of a resurrection if you will. After all for that kinda dough you get a MUCH stronger piece of equipment.
