[QUOTE="roger dodger, post: 1437470, member: 18173"] I had an 'issue' going off-road after missing a decreasing radius turn in TN somewhere. I saw a tree coming fast so chose to lay it down in the soft grass. The grass wasn't very soft, but my tank bag and windshield both came off and rolled to a stop close together. After I gathered myself and my parts together, I rode back with the shield strapped on the back seat. It's hard to find a Dealer (with parts) when you need one, so I found the metal screws that would fit and rode home to MN. I quickly paid to get those 'snappy' plastic screws and re-mounted my windshield happily!!! I figure I could have been hurt or worse if I had run into a thick shield during that oops! Remember ... they break easily so only snug them up on installation. Hopefully you never need to buy them again. [/QUOTE]
