What a difference

I just came back from a ride on the SH 300 after taking off the windscreen, boy does it shift without it. It took a bit of getting used to having a wind blast but once it gets going it really moves. On the A4 from the lights I wound it up to 80 mph,,, from a sanding start that's amazing, with loads left. it just seams to pull and pull. neat!!!

Its not the ones that he caught in his teeth that are the issue....its the ones that the wind force blew straight down his gob!!
Anyway, I once saw 85 on my SH with a semi-high windscreen....

I don't think it would be any faster, it's probably because you are now exposed to the wind that gives the sensation you are traveling faster, before I fitted the Givi screen I found my commute tiresome at speed and especially on a windy day, now it's a more relaxed ride.

nope, its locked away safe and sound, as I don't have the boat any more and there's no hooligans on the towpath to fire it at,
