People look at your bike and then give unsolicited advice about what you should do to your bike........like they have a clue???

It's not about the windsheild it was more about the way I was told. The problem with so many things today...so many people want to tell us what we need to do. I'm 44 support my own have been working sense I was 14. I dont need any goverment or dumdass as work telling me what I need to do...If you want a windsheild buy a bike!!! Dont tell me I need one.. If I wanted a windsheild I would have put one on there Damn dumbass.

I have a detachable that I never remove. All I have to do is clean it once a week to know why I keep using it.

To each their own. I dont have to ride your bike and if all bikes looked the same we would all look a bit funny. The custom windshields look pretty good and are much more enjoyable at highway speeds and long rides. If your gonna do what everyone else tells you then get ya Honda. Pose on poser's.

Yes Sir I Agree, this post is not about windshields it's about unsolicited opinions about what you should do.....

We are not all, ***** azz old timers. I'm 69, never used one will never use one.

And while we are talking about windshields. Anyone who rides with a windshield or puts bags on their scoot, are *****'s.

I wanted to say this for a while. I guess it is good time too, with the world coming to an end tomorrow.

Actually, windshields are for oldtimers who don't WANT the wind in their faces anymore. What is your reason for no windshield?
