I've got a smoked flyscreen on mine and it definitely helps at 50+ mph.

i would LOVE to see a big windscreen on a cutdown. You'd look like you were sailing to the west indies.

Back in the '80 all the old man P200E had those, often with a cigarette lighter mounted in the top of the glove box.

You WILL like it with the weather getting worse. You're frugal like me & pretty handy, could you make one from a cheap cast off motorcycle or modern scooter screen like this?

That's just threaded rod in the center, I put in my drill & used a grinder to relieve the middle. Weld nuts on the ends, put a bit of bow in it & paint. Under $10 with SS fasteners w/ donor windscreen. BIG difference on the freeway.

I like the one you posted too, but it's very 'normal'. You ARE getting old.

Thanks Jackson, you made my morning! It's an aquired taste, but once aquired, there many possibilities. The motor is almost entirely P200.

Bonus: OP also approves of these frequently.

much as I cringe saying this, but I love a polini kit, and would prob scare me on this one. I'll keep 'em on the smaller motors that Cosa can spank now for top end.

Off the line? Let's just say it's competitive when flogged but not impressive. REMEMBER I tossed about 130 pounds of plastic offa this thing!(OK, slight exaggeration)

B.. i don't think the one you picked will look all that bad... there's much worse and with no mirrors it'll be ok.. it'll serve the purpose.. Don't sweat it.. you wanna stay warmer?
The one Voodoo did actually looks cool (from the front ) but I don't think it'll keep that much wind off you... especially your hands, but it does look good.
