Good morning all,
Trying to sort out some upgrades for my '25 B model. I'm wanting to order a taller/longer windshield for mine and I'm seeing that there are some differences in mounting points between the '24 models and the '25 fairings. Before going the OEM route, I know I can order a TC version of the shield, I was wondering if anyone has tried any aftermarket shields, if so, what were your thoughts on it?
Thank you.
 
Sorry.. I'm still rocking the stock OEM Model B windshield; I've seen a difference in the wind management that the TC comes stock with, minus the larger windshield.

I'm 5' 9" and typically look over the windshield vs through it... I guess I'm right on the edge of feeling the turbulence that most get beat up by; the fairing winglets are typically OPEN during hot weather and under 55 mph, and I CLOSE them above 55 - 65 mph to deflect wind outward.

I'm not sure about the windshield differences between the earlier and newer year models..
