    I've been wanting to do a thread like this for a while. Being a roadster enthusiast and owner (own three now), I've got a thing for modified wind screens. There are all sorts of variations of this theme. I'm hoping we can collect them here.

    So, I'll start it off with a few I've got saved to my work PC. They give me inspiration.

    I love the side by side stanchions. Most people couldn't tell based on how smooth the chopped on is.



    Awesome!

    I like it when the cowl mounts and posts / windshields are in the same plane. Otherwise, they look "bent" to me. Gary

    I really want to start a roadsters without windshield thread.. I dig them without windshields just as much as I do with them.

    I'll get around to it in a couple weeks or something. I'd really like to see this one progress some first. :)
