Re: Corona Motorsports and... I push started the bike!

Thanks for the tip Busy. I've thought about the windshield, but I haven't done anything about it yet, because:

1) I'm a lazy ass. These things do not drop from the sky apparently. You have to find one, and, more than likely, install it yourself.
2) I'm not mechanically fortunate. Most mechanical projects I start end badly. Usually with the equipment involved in a state of greater chaos than when I started. Also with extra parts of whom's proper place I am no longer certain.
3) I have a general bias against effing with things. I figure if Suzuki wanted a windshield on there, they would have put one there. I know this is bullshit, because I have aerobars, after market pedals and a speedometer on my bicycle (all of which I paid other people to install) But still, I'm reluctant to remove, add or modify anything on my toys.
4) I wear a full face helmet. So my face is protected from the wind. I still feel it on my bod though.
5) Did I mention I'm a lazy ass?

If you ever want to go over 60, you're probably gonna have to bite the bullet and get SOMETHING to cut the wind...........or practice the crouching tiger position, hunkered down with your feet on the passenger pegs.

P.S. Almost ALL bike shops sell and install windshields! :cool:

My favorite, and most comfortable riding position. Another reason I bought the Ninja for highway use.
