Hey I pulled the screen off my bike when I bought her and it's only been back on once; I don't really like the look. I was wondering if anybody knew
it's value if I were to sell it or offer it on ebay? I just bought a sissy bar, and am looking for floor boards or forward controls, and figured if I
could offset the cost the wife would apprieciate it....so not really looking for offers, just trying to get a feel for the T market. It's in good shape,
not hazy, no major scratches, chrome is good. Thanks!

I think I'd hang on to it. If there ever comes a time that you would want to sell the bike, a prospective Tourer buyer will probably be looking for a
windshield.

You can expect between $75-$100 for it. I personally would not sell it. If you ever decide to sell your bike, then the new owner will likely want the stock
shield with it. You can't buy them new anymore and once it's gone-it's gone.

Thanks for the advise guys....for 75 bucks I think I'll keep it, may want it for some long trip to faraway someday. As for keeping it to sell
"Shadow", I'm hoping never to do so; drive her into the ground over the next 20 years then stuff and mount 'er! |

"then stuff and mount 'er!"
That's what I'm gonna do with mine. Since I have just about decided to give up two wheeling, I have been considering polishing her up real good, then castering her in that decapage (liquid plastic) stuff. You know. Would be kinda like a giant desk paper weight!! Or set it in the corner of the living room. (Like moma would go for that!!) -Dan |

Well, GripRip didn't want it after all. Still on the fence as to whether it's for sale. Thinking of an ebay auction. Thinking of keeping it.
Did get the sissy bar from ebay yesterday, looks nice. Moron who shipped it chose to tape it into the box, leaving tape residue all over the leather and chrome; spent an hour cleaning it with WD-40. Anybody else wanna weigh in on the windscreen?

All I can add is the same as everyone else has said. I not only have the original I took off my "T" but also a spare in the shop. I ain't
interested in selling either unless my kids get hungry!

Kids ain't starving yet....but I'm thinking forward controls/floorboards and the CFO does not like the numbers. Thinking of padding the paypal account
before shopping.
