Got my short windshield
from scooterworks today and boy am I disappointed. I haven't talked to them yet, so I will reserve judgement and pass along what happens. But, what I got is smaller and mounts in a different place than what is pictured on the genuine and scooterworks site. What they sent me is 7.5 inches tall by 7 inches wide. It is smoke colored though. I already don't like the looks of the 20% return charge, but we will see.

true, not much lost. But, I also wouldn't order something that I don't want in the first place. If it were the same shield that is in the picture, and I didn't like it, then I would gladly eat the return fee. And while we are at it, does anyone know where I can get a shield like the one shown on the genuine site?

Update
Well, I decided to keep the windshield and try it out for awhile. It fits together just a little bit crooked and as I've said, its pretty small. I can however feel a difference in the amount of wind hitting my chest. I get a little more wind noise inside of my helmet b/c the wind is being deflected toward my head. Overall, it does what it is intended to do and that is deflect the wind upward and make me a little more aerodynamic. I guess for 30 bucks it is worth it. I will however take a serious look at the windshield that nissanman linked and consider getting it for christmas or something.
