Link It's certainly selling well, as is the standard Tbird screen.

| | Posted : 22 Jan 2012 - 06:05 Post title : Re: Dart Flyscreens-Thunderbird and Storm (Re: sleddy) | | | Just put the Dart screen on the Storm today but couldn't take it out. Going to do a little ride tomorrow and test it. Supposed to be 73 degrees and windy so sounds like perfect conditions. First impression, looks better than I thought it would. It does flow with the bike pretty well and the slight tint just looks right. I do wish the bolts and washers that hold it to the brackets were black anodized as they show up a bit unsightly, but a little black engine paint can fix that. I'll give a post ride review as well. This was my first order from Eddy, and of course it went perfectly smooth and delivered in timely fashion. Thanks Eddy, more to come.

I also had a Dart screen on my America before I sold it and though I don't care for the look of screens in general, I pretty much considered it to be the most routinely noticeable upgrade I'd made on the bike. I felt the dividends on every ride. My test ride the other day was so windy that it might be unfair for a true assessment. I was riding in gusty winds of 20-40 mph and I'm sure this screen isn't designed to protect the rider from all that. Having said that, I was able to do about 95 mph right into the wind and felt more control over the handlebars than I normally would doing 75. And to me, that is really the purpose of this product. I think I will be happy with it. For someone like me who just wants to break a little off the upper body and minimize wind fatigue I can recommend it. Just know that it doesn't take much off the helmet, so it is best suited to those who ride with a FFH.

Mounts to underside of tripleclamp - where? Using cable retainer screw?

I just put mine on Yesterday and it helps a LOT, very easy install and very quick delivery after my order!
I saw a set of lowers that cost about $149.00 and were both chrome and plexiglass. The picture totally sucked in the catalog and couldn't even tell where they installed..
Any one running them and do you have some pictures?
