sailorjack Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 yes, I like the tinted one also but I'm not sure it'll offer much protection from the wind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowflake Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 I bought a windshield for my FJR from CalSci. Very good quality stuff, Had some questions about sizing and Mark was very helpful getting me the right fit. I like that the windshield design is based on science. Check out their whole website. Lots of good bike related stuff there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nick Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 These over-sized hand guards really crippling the windshield options. I think Yamaha should have gone with lower profile hand-guards, like Kawi Versys did, that would have allowed wider wind screen for better touring capability. The first thing I'd do is replacing hand guards for slimmer ones, as a bonus, you can fit a hippo hands on slim guards easier. And we all know a combination of heated grips and hippo hands miffs is a mmmm thing during winter months! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowflake Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Thats a very classy marketing strategy from CB. They don't have a product to offer so shit on your competitor who put the effort in to make something. Does anyone else think the CalSci offering is'hideous'? I had a Cee Bailey's windscreen on my FJR and ended up replacing it with a CalSci. It improved the turbulence and helmet buffeting substantially. Function seems to be CalSci's priority.

roadscum Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Madstad makes a nice setup for the FZ-09 that includes a set of adjustable brackets, a sport screen and a touring screen. I sure they'll have something for the FJ soon. I've used Madstad products on several bike and they work very well. Their bracket system allows for adjustment of height and angle but most importantly creates laminar flow that eliminates turbulence behind the windscreen. Anyone in central Florida interested in a system should give Mark at Madstad a call.... he may be interested in using your bike to develop a prototype system for the FJ. Here's what he's done for the FZ: http://www.madstad.com/s.nl/sc.7/category.12041/.f I wonder if his FZ system will fit the FJ? Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I much preferred the Cee bailey on the FJR (the reverse flip is fantastic), but on the FJ, the CalSci looks nice, so I will order one today. I was just posting that they do not have an offering yet, not to disparage CalSci, sorry. I modified my original post to get the correct point across, which is they Don't have anything brewing yet, but if anybody is near Montebello CA, they may use your bike as a model.

deersSlayer Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 Thanks for the link! I ordered the tinted short shield since i like clean air. I'll also post up pics when it's installed later this weekI ordered the CalSci short shield too, I also like clean air. Had a small issue trying to order online. I live in Canada near the US border so it's easier & cheaper to have stuff shipped to The UPS Store at the border. The CalSci site supports a separate delivery address, but had an issue with zipcode vs postal code. I emailed CalSci, they replied right away with a solution. Got it ordered, they shipped it same day. Very professional! FJ-09, 690 Enduro R. Back Roads. Period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
