    I suppose then, that you could move this entire thread to 'Ride Reports.' That wouldn't hurt my feelings any.

    Even a cheap little spitfire sport windscreen or something like this would help...

    What they said to me was, "We can't get one of those. You'll have to go to Kansas City for that."

    Well geez, if I'm going to have to have a bike shipped to get what I want, I'm going to get what I wanted in the first place, which was the 630. Shot a couple emails to Hall's and they had one shipped to my door.

    Sometimes I'm amazed at how difficult it is to give someone money these days.

    Is there anything about the Lynx Fairing you don't like?? I'm leaning towards getting one. Was it easy to install?

    I have a dual-HID Lynx on my 630. Love the light output!
    Installation is dead easy, especially if you take the tank off.

    The Lynx does make getting to the ignition key a bit of a hassle, especially with gloves on.
    I just made the ignition relief in the dash larger.

    I think Brittania mentioned that the installation instructions have changed regarding using a dedicated ground wire running back to the battery. The instructions I have indicate grounding to the top triple.

    How do you like that windshield? Is it secure in the wind? What model Spitfire is it?

    Google is your friend. Just about every e-tailer sells them. They are generally mounted on cruiser bikes. Maier also makes one that a few of the riders have used, also seem to work pretty well. And Twisted Throttle has the MRA screens, the RO has been mounted and photographed here too.

    I'll have an update shortly on my Turbo City Racks thread as they are fabricating brackets for the 630 to mount their windshield product. Thread link here:

    Hey, CJBROWN, certainly I know how to use Google. :doh:. I found many e-tailers as you wrote, but still looking for the manufacturer's site for the SpitFire windshield. If you can't find it, I'll do something else. No worries.

    The spitfire works great. It is real nice on the longer road rides and in the cool weather. It comes off in less then 10 seconds if wanted. Seems much less tiring riding on the road with the windshield on.

    I see many different Spitfires and mounting options. What is your model and mount options?

    A windshield will also improve your mileage.
