I purchased and installed a windshield for my DR650.  So I went for a short ride on Sunday to try it out.



It was pretty wet near the river.

Unfortunately this is the one and only time the windshield will be on my bike.  I had so much turbulence that it blurred my vision above 60 mph.  I guess it's going on the DR Riders swap meet this week.

I'm not sure what options there are for a DR, but usually what the factory offers only makes things worse.

Solorider, Happy Trails used to make a frame that would tilt a windscreen forward making it more upright preventing the wind from being dumped right into one's face. I still couldn't find an acceptable screen (tall enough) so made one. The homemade unit can't be seen through but that's not been a problem.

A little tall but was made for a ride from Pa to Al.
