Message: <blockquote data-quote="FJRMaineiac" data-source="post: 1448051" data-attributes="member: 1061"><p>Well, after ~18 years of riding with a Laminar Lip on my Gen1, a stiff gust of wind (and perhaps exuberant traveling velocity) ripped it off my windscreen yesterday on the highway.  I searched for a place to double back, but in the northern reaches of I-95 in Northern Maine, those opportunities are few and far between.  I was also riding with my son on his IBA SS1000 attempt and didn't want to impact his ability to finish on time, so I left it where it fell.  Now I am looking for a replacement.  The Laminar Lip doesn't appear to be offered anywhere convenient these days, and with my original windscreen yellowed and having that sandblasted look (not really sandblasted - the defects are inside the plastic, not on the surface), I decided to give the V-Stream a try.  I just pulled the trigger on the 20.5" model - I hope I chose wisely.  The 22.5" one just seems like it would be too big and would not have any air flow for cooling in the summer.  Did I make the right choice?  I am a 6' tall rider and found the stock screen with Laminar Lip (adding 3" - 4") just about right.  Thoughts?</p></blockquote><p></p>
