Hey y'all
« on: November 02, 2016, 08:54:05 PM »
Bought a 90 K75 and it's gonna be delivered around turkey day.  Looking forward to some mild winter riding on the Gulf coast.  What's a good flyscreen? I've used Dart screens on a a couple of Triumphs I had and liked the look and the amount of air they blocked. This looks like the kind of site that I'll enjoy.

welcome, the K75 is a great all around bike.  Opinions on screens are all over the place, depending what model you have I'd wait until you have some miles on it.

Don't know about a flyscreen but the one on my K75S does the job quite well.

You'll like the K75.  It's my commuter through the morning and afternoon traffic, the ABS and heated grips make it an almost year-round ride... snow will keep me off the roads in Virginia.
