Can you add a windscreen to all naked bikes?JC Viper wrote:I'd rather have a naked bike and add a windscreen/ flyscreen to it. Insurance is the biggest factor for me and those little plastic fairing parts cost money to insure. Besides I've ridden on naked/ standards and faired bikes and found both were pretty much the same ride to me and much better than a cruiser.
If not a naked then a half-fairing bike would do... not much of those around are there.
They have smaller windscreens for naked bikes and screen lips to add a little more protection on the stock windscreen. Those were popular on the Kawasaki ZRX1200 (I miss those bikes).RhadamYgg wrote:Can you add a windscreen to all naked bikes?JC Viper wrote:I'd rather have a naked bike and add a windscreen/ flyscreen to it.

There is the Suzuki Bandit. Also there are sme earleir than 2009 sv650s with half-fairong.
Ahhhh. I am so confused about what I want.
As much as I like the way. 600cc sport bikes look - my wife is against me getting one.
If I'm interested insafety... I need tob get a bike with ABS... but that linits the number of bikes to choose from,

I have looked at some Buells. The new one - the CR or something - looks so weird that I actually really like it.BRUMBEAR wrote:I have a buell xb12ss and have had the bike for 2 years and 15K miles and never a dull moment.There is virtually no difference in the backroads the higway ya but I see you also live in NJ and riding highways will probably not be much fun in either
Buell improved the engine a bit from the 1125R making the 1125CR (Cafe Racer) more refined. So far there are a lot of good reviews on it but it'll be expensive given that it's a Buell (it's priced close to the B-King but any bike above $10k is expensive to me).RhadamYgg wrote:I have looked at some Buells.

But I like the B-King too, go figure...
