7jurock on F3S - anyone have a 27inch w/screen?
I just have a quick question...I know 7Jurock has some great products as far as the windscreens...Does anyone have the 27inch windscreen..I know you have to measure but i just wanted to see if anyone has a picture with it on their bike...

I recently installed the 7Jurock 27" windscreen on my F3. It's better than the BRP Blue Ridge I had before but, I would like it to be a couple inches taller. The extra width is nice though. I'm 5'8" and find that the wind hits the very top of my Helmet at 50+ MPH and gets pretty loud at 70. I'm going to make some spacers out of black delrin plastic to try to increase the angle a little. I'll report back to let you know how that works out. One thing to be aware of, as they mention on the web site, you need the hardware from the Blue Ridge or the Route 129 windscreen. They don't provide mounting hardware.
Reargards,
Greg

I'll try to take a picture tonight and post it later.

Thank you for the quick response you are awsome.... I've heard a lot of good things about it and I'm 5'10 so I know it may hit me the same way...the spacers is a great idea and i will definitely take that into consideration. I just want to see what that size windscreen would look like on the F3

UPDATE;
So... I tried making some 1" thick spacers from Black Delrin. I think the turbulence on my helmet actually got worse, definitely not any better. That seems to indicate to me that the angle is already at the best position for the height of the windscreen and the only way to improve the turbulence or buffeting on the head is with an extender as AZCanAM said, or a larger winscreen.
Best Regurds,
Greg

You being taller than me might help to get the top of your head above the "Turbulent Zone". The top of my head feels like it's getting pounded and if I sit up a little taller, it sometimes gets a little quieter.

Here it is with a cheap chineese extension
I'm going to make my own extension soon, but this help with helmet noise for now.

Quacker,
Your F3 basic could be a twin to mine, same windshield and floorboards! Just added a Baja Ron sway bar, great improvement on handling.

With the 27 inch windshield, I'm assuming you are looking through it as opposed to over it while riding?

Nope! It would need to be a few inches taller to look through it. Hence, the extension. The cheap one works OK, but not great. That's why I have a piece of 3/16 thick clear acrylic coming soon to make a custom extension from that will hopefully work out quite well. Stay Tuned!!

Excellent! I guess I'll be getting the 27 inch shield then! I'm 5'11 so probably will need some sort of additional extension like you're referring to. Thanks!

I have the exact same windshield as well. Does not look as bad as one would think due to the shape. I will post a picture sometime in the next 24 hours. It is very effective. Way better than the BRP Blue Ridge. You can also easily add a windshield extender to get even more wind blockage. I'll take a picture of that as well.
Edit: Hopefully you already have the mounting hardware otherwise you might be better off going a different route in terms of cost.
Like Quacker said, you need the mounting hardware that can't be purchased separately from the BRP windshield (which sucks).

Yes I have the blue ridge windshield from BRP...and actually still have it on as of right now...

Thank you. I ordered the sway bar off LaMonster and plan on buying a Harbor Freight motorcycle lift for $109. I figure it would be nice for oil changes as well.

Sounds good! I would use jack stands or some other way to stabilize the bike! The jack lifts from center and bike can still be wobbly! Be safe, you’ll notice the difference in the handling of the bike. PS, I used the super glue method Ron suggests to hold the spacers onto the links! Just make sure you have them lined up, glue sticks instantly! Happy riding!

Hey AZCanAm! I can't seem to find those exact model floorboards you have on your bike. I'm looking on the Can Am spyder accessories website. Lot's of options, but can't seem to find those. Happen to have a part# ??

I wish I could help you. I bought mine used. The floor boards came with the bike already installed.

On the Ultimate floorboards, bought from CanAm accessories.com. Very expensive, but was what I wanted to make getting on and off bike easier and being able to move my feet to make ride more comfortable! Installation was a breeze! Valu accessories on this web site also carry them!

These are pretty sweet and not badly priced. I looked all over mine and there are no labels or part numbers to be seen.
I really like these. http://www.canamspyderaccessories.co...-manual-shift/
If you like the floorboards I have I would be happy to sell mine for cheap so I can buy those in the link. Otherwise, consider those in the link.

Those are definitely different than ours and cost about half of what I paid for mine! For myself, the longer Ultimate Floorboard allows me to mount and dismount easily and gives me plenty of stretch for my feet at setting 3. Both look and will work great! Now you have to decide which one?
-
Just a side note from the windscreen...on the floor boards i got these floorboards footboards1.jpgfootboards2.jpg and they are least expensive and still allow for good foot movement..also they look awesome on the spyder...

Very nice! Weather getting warmer, time to use them!
