RE: nine inch windshield
Cut down the OEM windscreen to the height you want. I used a rotary variable speed Dremel with a 1&1/2" cutoff wheel. A buddy let me use his shorty screen as a template so I could maintain the same curve as stock. I've done it without the template but this method worked great. I blue taped the windscreen in the area to be cut and traced the curve on it with a Sharpie. I practiced cut on the upper section. Slow wheelspeed and continuous movement when cutting prevented melting. It took six to seven passes to complete the cut. Ismoothed the curve with a block sander and finished up with Auto paper that is similar to crocus cloth. I remounted it to do the finish work. It looks stock, I can see over it and Idon'tnotice anymoreturbulence than when it was too tall.

I bought a smoked 9" fast aire for my 99 classic....I bought it on ebay...for the price I was suprised at the quality....I think I paid 35 bucks with the shipping. It was delivered within 5 days and the fit was flawless...It has been on the scooter over a year and still looks brand new!
I believe the guy selling them has an beay store. try Fastaire1 or fastaire one or fastaireone...It was one of these three names... Good luck!
