[QUOTE="OrangevaleFJR, post: 15769, member: 548"] Today my CB +4+1 shield came and from the same truck came my Tacki handgrips. I only had time for a quick spin so this report is just first impression: CB - Well, I was tempted to buy a +3+1 and if I rode solo I think it would be better, but 2up the +4 will come in handy. All the way down I get very little air and it doesn't take much upward control of the screen to get the air off of me completely. One the air is completely off of me, going higher just serves to make it even quieter. I am 5'11". Testing 2up should be interesting. Sherri didn't feel any benefit at all from the stock screen. I am looking forward to testing the shield with her. It won't be long until we have high mileage reporting as we are leaving for Colorado on Monday. I would not use this screen in Sacramento in summer months. Too tall. Tacki grips: My right hand gets numb on the stock bars even if my hand is open and fingers resting on the brake lever. My short ride yesterday sure isn't the test but I was immediately more comfortable. Some of you are much better at working with rubber than I am...I made the ends ugly. Oh well. [/QUOTE]
