    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Fairing windshields

That site had a Sports Touring Wind Screen for the "S" fairing. The stock screen directed the wind directly into my chest and making the wind noise in my helmet terrible. Putting my arm across the screen about 2" above it redirected the wind up to my neck. The wind screen is 6.5" taller and should direct the wind over my helmet. Just what I have been looking for. Thanks again for the link.:D https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/BknvQH-jM6vQhT034iBiDUSZDkUcVTs9uJaEULWC518?feat=directlink
 
Keep in mind that they emboss their logo (or at least they did at one time) what they sell. It's really ugly and impossable to remove...

I seen that they had all different heights of windshields and thought it would be helpful. I'm tall and it's always hard for me to find things tall enough, can always make something shorter. Good luck with the new shield and hope it works the way you need it to.

True but it's really not that bad, I bought mine from them and the logo doesn't seem to be the center of attraction. In fact it's almost invisible now and I've had it for a couple years plus the bike lives in the garage.

Just my .02
 
Got the windshield, apparently they heard the complaints about the logo. There were two gold logos on each side of the screen. It took about 4 rubs with 3M Lens and Hard Plastic Scratch Remover to make them disappear. The screen is quite good and would be even better with the clear cover for the headlight, but it's not necessary and might overheat the headlight. Sorry about the fuzzy picture, getting old is so much fun. https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/oiKYVqQs4DmPfaULCTciwESZDkUcVTs9uJaEULWC518?feat=directlink

It really didn't take long for mine to just wear off. I like that windscreen, you've got the same fairing as me, I'm trying to picture in my mind how my bike would look with that screen but the problem is that I kinda cafe'd mine out so it might not look very good, maybe I'll get one and mount it just to get a good idea what it'd look like. :)
 
It certainly does, and best of all, I can now hear CCR at a good listening level, wind noise has been cut at least by two thirds and I can ride with visor up if I want to. It will make a good year round fairing.:D
