My Spyder T Tops

[Rogue Hawk]

Well, that is what I call it. I wanted to be able to easily attach\detach my Blue Ridge windshield, much like on the old 1980's Camaros with there T Tops.

The stock nuts\bolts use a tool to remove the windshield. So the aim was to find a tool less alternative. I found these license plate holders that have a reflective head. When not using the windshield, I will wrap it in bubble wrap.

So far so good, I had my bike up to 60 mph and I noticed no extra vibration and the holders did not come loose. Since I used wing nuts on the other side, I can always tell if one is in danger of giving away.

I will run with this for a while, if there are any undesirable side affects I will let you know.

Not sure about blue reflector front. I really like toolless alternative though.
Stylistically, maybe a dip in some black paint would be nice.

Nicely done..!!

Congrats on a successful alternative. Those come in all colors so you have options. From the reflection on your frunk lid it looks like a good day for a ryde...:thumbup:

Yes, I am not too happy with the blue reflectors, but that is what I had on hand. I wanted to test the concept. License plate bolts come in thousands of colors and styles. I will look around.

I was just looking around and came across this. These would look better on a cruiser like the f3
