[QUOTE="Crash Cash, post: 498953, member: 6978"] Well, the windshield on my GS1100GL was held on pretty solidly with those steel National Cycle brackets. I basically went straight through it and it shattered. I had a Subaru turn left in front of me and I went over the the Subaru. Messed up my knees too, for the same reason, but not permanent. I flew/slid/rolled a grand total of 171ft, which is about 57 yards. Wheee! Thank ${DEITY} I was ATGATT even 20 years ago. I also probably had internal bruising too, but Florida doctors are too stupid to be able to detect/treat anything less obvious than a badly broken bone, and even then they have a problem figuring out which bone it is. (for example: I broke my ankle and they told me I had a broken collarbone. Truth.) I don't see it as a problem. I also don't think the stock FJR screws are a problem either, they're a heck of a lot less fragile than the plastic/cheese screws holding on the shield on my V-Strom. [/QUOTE]
