    Default Blue ridge works great now

    Today I was able to move my blue ridge windshield forward about 3.5 inches thanks to the idea that "Arizona spyder" posted a while ago.
    I'm 5 10 , and before I moved it,the wind would hit me from the neck up. now that it's forward it hits the top of my head,so much better.
    a big shout out to "Arizona spyder" for the idea.

    Glad to see this work but I am still replacing mine with a Madstad 20 inch adjustable. I will have a Blue Ridge for sale next week for only $100 plus shipping.. (new $399) Keep me in mind if you want to add this to your F3..

    I did that. Now it's rideable at speeds above 50.

    I tried that too. Couldn't get mine high enough due to the front part touching as I raised it up. It helped over the stock position, but still killed me above 55 mph with buffeting.

    Now I have a 20" Madstad and it's so much better even at the lowest position.
