I have 4 windshields for my R3T, but none of them are on the bike now, lol.

All of the posts about wind protection have me scratching my head.
I bought a bike with wind protection. A Victory Cross Country Tour. The windscreen was so large it encompassed everything in my field of view. It was the first thing that I took off when I got her home.
One of the things that I enjoy about riding, is the wind in my face. I ride with my visor up, mostly.
When I want wind protection, I drive the car.
The R3R is a raw beast. Not as unrefined as some bikes that I own, but still a riders bike. You know that you are alive when aboard.
Embrace her for what she is. Ride her hard, taste the bugs and tell the missus you be back later.

I will take a windshield, I ride lots of miles not just to the nearest pub.

Let's see that naked Victory CC Tour. The internet seems void of one. The only reason to do something like that is if you wrecked it on day one.

Not naked. Just pissed the monstrous screen off. It was like riding in a bubble. I'd never experienced a full screen, on a bike, before and it felt horrible. Ruined the riding experience so much that after riding her home for an hour and a half, I rode into the shed and got the tools out.
I fabricated a new screen which gives me my wind in the face ride.

Home made screen, before I cut it down even more.

For me the flyscreen is perfect...it isnt meant to be a windscreen as such...if you want a bigger windstopper then ride a goldwing or an Indian!...this isnt a bagger, its a muscle/cruiser..Bloody hell!...once upon a time we rode bikes without any form of a screen...wind in the face is what its all about. All this talk about changing the whole bike to what its not designed to be...My thinking is any updates to the Rocket will only be obvious...The rear brake issue sorted...different colours...maybe a better rear shock absorber and with suspension which changes when the road modes are changed like the Tigers and the choices to alter dampening etc via the menu..... The last thing i want to see is the Rocket going the same way as Indians, Harley Baggers, Goldwings etc.

I would like to see Triumph get rid of their crappy key less key fobs and return to a real key ignition. Oh yeah ... how about an actual rear mud guard of some kind.

Not me I love the keyless fobs. I wouldn’t not buy another scoot without them but if all else is equal I would go with the keyless one. Different strokes.

We never take the keys out of any vehicles we've ever owned, so when I added a keyless ignition to mine I hated it, I couldn't leave it the barn let alone on the bike, otherwise it communicates back and forth with the bike until the batteries go dead, I ended up taking it off and giving it away. I guess it depends on where you live, we've always been very rural.
