[QUOTE="norcal rider, post: 1452670, member: 88329"] This OEM shield came off a 2005 and if I recall had less than 2k on it. I bought it to experiment with where the wind hits me on my helmet. The taller CB in the lowest position puts all the wind right on my head and even with plugs the roar is awful, using three different styles and brands of helmet. My thought is the lower OEM shield will put my head more in the wind, lowering the decibel blast. I've had the opportunity to compare a couple of Yamaha branded OEM gen 1 windshields with this Mitsubishi branded windshield. The Yamaha branded shields don't appear to have a coating, and with over 25k miles on them (three different shields) do not show any type of clear coat peeling. The shield I just picked up, Mitsubishi branded, has a totally different appearance. Same shape, but the clarity of the plastic is different. My lame uneducated about plastics description. [/QUOTE]
