    Windshield


    Recently fitted a windshield on a cruiser, now bike shakes like crazy at all speeds. Any suggestions

    try adjusting angle, could be too vertical. I am thinking that the screen is creating a vortex behind it. another option is those little deflector screens that fit to the forks, they send wind up behind the screen to equalise the pressure

    Any pic's and what's it fitted to? Is it a decent set up or one of those cheap and nasty things on T/m?

    No it's not a usual thing. May be at wrong angle or skewed causing the issues. I had one of the T/m ones for ages and had to tweak it often as the darn thing kept moving. Could cause anything from a minor buffeting to full on screen shaking an everything in between. Finally replaced it with a decent unit, one tweak after fitting, no issues.

    Fork a bit lose?
    Headbearing ok etc etc.....?
    Not necessarily screek causing it..
    May have underlying issues
    Opinions are like arseholes: Everybody has got one, but that doesn't mean you got to air it in public all the time....
