Shorter Shield For '83 VR.

[NLAlston]

Hi all,

 

My '83 VR came with a pitted windshield, which can't be bettered with anything that I've tried. Whatever it is, it is there to stay. So I am interested (depending on what the cost would be) of replacing it. However, the present shield is of a height which is a little uncomfortable for me. The top edge of it cuts smack-dab through the middle of my sight, and I find myself either raising my head to view over it, or lower my head to look out beneath it. I would like to get one somewhat shorter than the one I have. Would anyone know of a place where I might be able to get a hold of shorter, used one? And maybe offer direction to where a new one might be looked into, providing that there is no info on a used one.

 

Advanced thanks.

Or, come down and try out the extra one I have and see how you like the height of a tall one. If you like it, you may use it untill you can pick up another one or if I ever put the parts bike back together...
