For the life of me, why would anyone brag about being able to remove a windshield in 39 seconds? Such a nifty thing indeed! Jeez. If the windscreens are so freaking great, why bother removing them? To better pose? And even then, what to do with the dern thing once removed? Oh, I'll lean it up against this Saguaro while I take some photos of Rt. 66. Hum, you can go from touring mode to trolling mode? Troll? Really?

Good video write-up though.




Many riders feel windshields and saddlebags take away from the style of the motorcycle but both are very handy to have on long road trips. I'd say clip a removable windshield on only when taking a long ride at interstate speeds otherwise leave it in the garage at home. My wife's Sportster has a factory H-D removable windshield that she leaves locked on all the time but when I wash and polish her bike it makes it much easier to remove the windshield.

Just rider preference that's why there are so many options and types of motorcycles. Most Daytona 675R owners have no idea why we would want to ride cruisers etc.
