cheap windshield $123 delivered ebay
« on: April 27, 2018, 03:21:43 AM »
Thought it worth posting this up.  I'd been on the hunt for a new windshield for my early st1300 for a while but even the cheap ones were around $300.  Found some for sale by a dodgy looking chinese knockoff place that said on their own page they expect long delivery times, but $123 for a windshield including delivery was cheap enough for me to give it a go.  They had a standard and a "double bubble" available when I purchased but seem to only have the double bubble one now, both were same price.  Turned up 2 weeks later and was identical to stock.  For the price pretty hard to beat.  Holes etc all lined up.  I don't know much about plastics but was a massive improvement on my faded/hazed one that I'd already stuffed up trying to polish.  As usual YMMV.

Hi imagineero and welcome to OzSTOC from SA.   :hatwave   Thanks for the screen link, which looks pretty good if someone is looking for an OEM screen.

Perhaps you might like to post a photo of your bike and a little about yourself and how you can to own an ST on our "Introduce Yourself & Your Bike" thread at ...   http://ozstoc.com/index.php?board=14.0

Thanks Pete,
Will post an intro at some point when I get a chance.  I’m a bit of a lurker on these forums but a long time poster on netrider under the same name.  I’ve had my ST about 6-8 months now I guess, put about 15,000 on it so far.  I’m still a bit up in the air about it, my last few bikes were all blackbirds and I rode them all the death so quite a few hundred thousand k’s combined.  The ST is nice for sure, would be nice to have a little more cornering clearance though...

It may be decided for me shortly.  I got SMIDSY’d by a lady a couple of weeks ago and in negotiations with her insurance company about it.  I wasn’t injured luckily, but they may end up writing the bike off.  Damage was cosmetic only but it doesn’t take much for the repair bill to be more than the market value on older bikes. I’d just fitted a new set of pilot road 4 gts too :-(
