This is a nice windshield for my 1997 honda rebel. I am very pleased with this purchase. The only problem I had was with the bolts to mount to cycle. It was mostly my fault because I did not locate the brake, throttle and clutch line in the correct place, so I had to remove the bolts and start over. The bolts are mainly designed to go on one time and hold. I guess this is a good thing because you would not the bolts backing out. I ended up have to cut the bolts of and purchasing new bolts at Lowes, again which I consider my fault. On my cycle I ended up having to place the cable on top of the mounting brackets. Once the windshield was on my bike I was very pleased with the look, fit and how much wind it deflected. If I ever own another rebel I would definetly install this windshield (National Cycle N2320 Dakota 3.0).

The National Cycle VStream N******* windshield was a fantastic upgrade, and Leatherup's price could not be beat! It was placed on a 2010 Yamaha FJR 1300. I am 6 ft tall with 34 inch inseam, size 40 chest and 150lbs. Stock windshield of FJR gave buffeting to my head and shoulders even in the full up position. Installation, following the included instructions, was 10 minutes max. On the road in the lowerest position, shoulder buffeting was gone, but there was head buffeting at highway speeds but much less than the stock shield. In the 3/4 to full raised position, no head buffeting whatsoever not for me or my 5ft 9in wife riding pillion. I have ridden a recent 1600 mile road trip (full Texas summer heat, rains and New Mexico mountain cool air), at speeds up and beyond posted highway limits loving the new windshield all the way. Lots of bugs and rain drops but the windshield still looks new and unscratched after cleaning with plain water and soft cloth. Best gas milage is in the lowest position, milage drops (depending on speed and headwind) in the full up position. Best average tank MPG on the recent fully loaded road trip riding from lowest to half up was 52mpg, worst was 37mpg bucking head winds with the screen full up. Half up still allows enough air flow to keep my full face helmet ventilating in the hot Texas summer sun without excess buffeting. Well worth the upgrade and the 5 star rating.

My boyfriend LOVES the boots, BUT when he went to put them on and wrapped the shoestring around one of the metal loops at the top, the metal loop broke right off. I would hope that there is some type of warranty on them since they are brand new and to be honest, for the price, should never have broken. I would appreciate an email back letting me know if I can send them back to be replaced, or if you can fix it. I would greatly appreciate a reply at your convenience. Thank you.

I found one outside pocket with both zippers put on the same way and a safety snap that holds the zipper up on the beauty cover for the straps came apart. Other than that I love it. I highly recommend. My issue more lies with Leather up. I called immediately when I found the snap problem, the day before I was to depart on my 3 week trip, and was told they would not accept it back if it was used in any way. Well nothing I can do now. I noticed the zipper issue 4 days into my trip. I'm sending it back they can take it up with Nelson- Rigg. I should not be to blame for their poor quality control inspections.
