I've been looking around for windshields for my bike, and I've seen a few I like, but I was checking out youtube today and I saw the windshield on this bike and was wondering if anyone knows what it is or where I can get one?

Just remember that a windshield mounted to the forks or handlebars is going to be fighting the steering in windy conditions versus one mounted to the frame somehow like a fairing is.

I don't know why it works for some and not for others. Maybe different browsers or settings. I just went there again and both show me the video.2-79 XS1100 SF

Yes that is one of Yamaha's "mini cruiser" windshields which were marketed thru Yamaha dealers for all the specials from 1979 thru at least 1982. we sold mountains of these things so there have got to be some out there somewhere, bone yards or E-bay. good luckAlias Larry R in Kelso WA
