That Dakar windshield is a nice looking unit. It appears to house items like a GPS nicely, and the wind protection is certainly a benefit. I'll watch for your results, Spud.

It's time for an update.
![]() ![]() http://www.nationalcycle.com/catalog...orScreen.shtml The DX version I ordered is completely adjustable and removeable without tools. ![]() I was very impressed with the quality of manufacture of this windshield, which is made in the U.S.A. ![]() http://www.nationalcycle.com/about.html

Here are several photographs of the National Cycle Deflector windshield installed on an XR650L.

I used the same brand windshield on my GS1100 for many years. Good unit.

Thanks for the good report, Doc.
![]() I was pleased to learn National Cycle is the largest distributor of motorcycle windshields in the world, and manufacures OEM windshields for many motorcycles. ![]() http://www.nationalcycle.com/WhyBuy/chapter4.html These windshields also have a 3-year unbreakable warranty. I got a great deal purchasing this windshield for $98, delivered. ![]()

It takes a little effort to get the clamps on just right with regard to angles and symmetry but after that you're good to go.

Most of the time I will continue to ride without the windshield. Therefore, I like having the option to easily, and quickly remove the windshield without tools.

If I actually had bikes that would be suitable for highway travel, I'd consider a windshield like that. Until I find a decent 400cc DS for a low price, I'll be riding in the 200-250 range.
