    Hi...

    Looks like windshield up and down. Give it a go and see what happens. Engine might have to be running though.

    1) Experience is something you don't get until after you need it.
    2) A closed mouth gathers no foot.
    3) IF YOU DON'T HAVE TIME TO DO IT RIGHT, WHEN WILL YOU HAVE TIME TO DO IT OVER??

    Horsepower is an illusory mathematical equation; Torque is REAL, and is the source of all good things in the world.

    The problem is not the problem. The problem is your attitude about the problem. Do you understand?

    Please check out my pics!!

    I don't have the bike, just the picture, but I'm guessing you're probably right. In icon looks like it could be a slanted windshield.

    Interesting. My 2015 RT-S has an adjustable screen. The "up/down" button is in the left switch module along with horn, turn signal and flux capacitor activator (at 88 miles per hour!)
