Black 2005 Rocket III
Does anyone here have any of the three styles that fit the Rocket and what do you like or dislike about them? Clear or Smoke etc ....

My bike is a 2005, that I'm, getting set ready to ride.

Thanks

Of the two large ones I prefer the smaller summer screen but to be honest a fly screen or tge sports screen (clear fly screen) is the best just did a 10 hour day on sunday mostly at 80 ish. Nothing over 110ish

Sure
 

Windvest. Comes in two sizes and the height has a 4 inch adjustment. Resists scratching better than any other screen I have used. Easy on Easy off. The lower deflectors silence up the helmet area somehow.

Easy for you to say/do there, Warpo!
You barely see over a fly screen when riding!

Thats one of the major benifits of the clear sports screen. You can see thru it. Well those of us who can duck down and put our chins on the gas gas cap. This does not count if you have a double chin

Serious I was a die hard windscreen guy have all three plus the solid one. Forced myself into riding to stearns with just the fly screen. Glad I did as I found out how good they are. Now the windscreens will be for cold fall weather. And the even make over sized ones now for fellers that have to much table muscle to actually lean forward on the tank. You know the ones whose belly hit the tank sitting upright
 
Well some unobtainium has been found and is one its way. As my speedometer didn't work (tach did), I hunted around for a loooong time to fine one. Dreading Triumh's 'order one from England and wait 3-4 weeks. Thru a small shop, that knew someone else, that knew ... I found one OEM, new in the box and had been sitting there on the shelf sinceabout 2007. Its enroute now. Widn screen arrived today. Neutral safety swittch/clutch lever arrives Wednesday-Thursday.... So perhaps on the road this weekend.
 
As this is a new speedo, any hints for me in regards to mounting it as (perhaps), getting my mileage to display on it?
