• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

F3 Windshield

favor 129

Has anyone tried the route 129 windshield, I was considering that one and/or the gauge spoiler

My wife has it on her F3 but hasn't ridden it much since we got it. She did like it on the 10+ miles she did on in leaving the dealer. Weather has dropped as soon as I parked in the garage so haven't had a chance to try it but at least it has given me time to farkle up a bit.
The gauge spoiler will only cover the gap between the cluster and the front. Won't do much as a wind protector... well maybe from keeping debris from getting in there.
 
F3-S Windscreen

I have the Blueridge shield---it looks great but to avoid the wind I need to lean down forward approx 4". It's great for short rides but longer distance would benefit with a windshield 4" taller.
 
The combination of the Blue Ridge Windshield and a full face helmet provide pretty good wind protection for now, but I will look closely at any taller option that F4 offers to the market

That is what I have and you are correct, it is only protection for the bike. I get glorious full wind in the face while riding. I (almost) always wear a full face though so I don't mind.
 
Picked up my F3-S yesterday and they installed the BlueRidge on there. I am 5'11" and using a FullFace... and the ride
was very nice. I honestly did not notice much pressure on the upper body or helmet area. Lets-say I never felt like the
wind was pushing against me. (And the look, IMHO, is REALLY nice.... keeps the unit with a sporty look)
 
another option would be to use something like this:

they make other versions to (and you could probably find this or something similar on a google search)
