So I'm shopping online and see these guys int he UK make windshields for all kind of bikes. They offer a clear, light smoke and dark smoke and make windshields for all of the old Bikes.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/261952735392?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

Anyone use them before? First glance the $90 shipping is outrageous, but I'm going to London next month and an email exchange finds they are near London, and will deliver to the hotel for about $10.

Another UK suppliers I should think about while I'm there?

Two suitcases full of dirty clothes for padding. Probably 6 or 8? Was thinking about getting a clear one and a light smoke for me.

I'd be interested in a clear. The aftermarket one I have on there now isn't bad, but I was thinking this one might help with buffeting... nothing to do with Jimmy.

If you are having trouble finding...

I have the Cee Bailey on my K11LT and after 5 seasons... not a mark. Aircraft grade acrylic. My third windscreen (other 2 were on other bikes) from these guys with never an issue. thick and sturdy.

5 different heights to choose from ... clear, smoke and light gray.

http://www.ceebaileys.com/bmw/bmws1100lt.htm

They are wider (website says "slightly") , but the bottom contours exactly the same as stock. If I had to guess, maybe 1.5 inches wider... 3/4 inch on each side but that is ONLY a guess.

Though they kind of suck in the rain, I run a smoked on my LT. Why? So the dumbshit you parallel parked behind actually sees your bike before he/she backs up and knocks it over.
