Could you maybe give us a little clue? I have no idea as there is no link nor photo for me to look at. Could just be my puter but I doubt it.2-79 XS1100 SF

The pics are showing, I have no clue what type that is, you could probably make one yourself if you are handy. Looks like it just wraps around the headlight bucket, no detail of the mounting bracket though. The fella at bikescreen.com would probably know what it is if you could send him that pic, he wouldn't be able to supply the mounting bracket, just the plastic.Last edited by bikerphil; 05-04-2016, 05:46 PM.2H7 (79) owned since '89

Hi Brak,
do a search on Google for motorcycle windshields. I bet there are a dozen models very similar to that available. Years ago Meier (sp) had a fibreglass headlight surround with a small windshield which looked nice on XS Specials.

I've been searching for a while, and found a few that were similar, but not the same...Originally posted by MaximPhil View Post
Taste is purely subjective, but...
To me, windshields on bikes are like 4 doors on a car...
I understand why people would want them, convenience and function, but i can't stand the way they look.
That being said, the fact that this one hit me right in the feels, made my heart skip a beat... well... That's a big deal
Deep down, i was hoping someone would recognize the bike, albeit a long shot...80 SGComment
