I can remember one of the members on here having something similar on his ride. Maybe someone can remember it as well and point you in the right direction..

You're overdoing the eh's Pat. You'd never pass for one of us.

Thanks for posting the batwing pics. The picture of the mounting was great info. I am not looking for something that large. Maybe something smaller than the link I provided. Does any know if the fly screen for the Boniville or Thruxton will work? Although I would like something a little bigger. I can not beleive how picky I am.

I had a cafe fairing off my KZ collecting dust in the rafters of my garage and decided to try it on my TA. It works pretty well, smoothes out the wind gusts and keeps the cold wind off my lower torso. I'll get a better picture of her this afternoon after her bath. http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_GPYX6MNs_1M/SSli-zDGxrI/AAAAAAAAAWs/Ro1CKWxQpgA/s1600-h/100_3045.JPG

Parabellum over in Dahlonega, GA makes a similar item for standard Bonnevilles called the "Parabellum Scout Fairing". It would be very easy to adapt it to our bikes, but you might want to call them ((706) 864-8051 ) and find out for your self.

Kendall, Both Dart and Triumph make flyscreens for our bikes. You may want to look at something like national cycles F15 or F16 shield and see if they have a way to adapt it to our bikes- bigger than a flyscreen, not quite a windshield.

Bravura,
Thanks for taking the extra time taking the pics. That is close to what I am looking for.
Thanks to everyone else who posted it gave me some ideas.
I would truly perfer to keep the bike naked all the way around. I am just looking to try a keep a little wind off me when riding above 70 mph. I just can't do a clear wind screen.

The KZ fairing and mounts look sensible but there also seems to be some equivalent in Harley-ville.

Thanks, The HD picture of the fairing seems to be more bullet shaped. I think I could live with that. I guess it is off to borrow a friends HD catolog.
