I can tell you the windsheild on our 22 is worthless. It seems to channel the wind right in your face. The Minx windsheild was MUCH better at deflecting wind.

The deflector stuff is a motor cycle item, Minxguy (Ken) posted the name of the stuff awhile back. He has it on his 22 and say it works good!

Joe I think someone cut the original deflectors of of your windshield, mine still has them and your hat stays on no matter what speed you go,

What type of windshield do you have? If it a stainless framed you will need the adhesive backed edging.
The other stuff has a channel to fit on the edge of a windsheild without a frame.

Now that I have used it fora season I am more impressed with it, works very well.

The Minx is far better, but the 22 with the wind deflector tabs works well. But, I thought your 22 had that shield??

At those speeds I would be worried about thumb screws holding it on.

Catch: I have 2 buddies of mine that have 20 cig's that run up there in the mid to upper 80's and they are the one that got me interested, the add states they aretested to 80. always someone with a negitive comment. i imagine if your going for the last mph you wouldn't want them on anyway. just a thought hope your holiday was safe and happy

Wasn't meant to be negative, I agree that the shields would help. But are they safe @ 70-90+ ?
