Hey, quick question. My cousin and his wife just got a 12xt, and have been making some weekend trips, and told me I should come along on my 9sx, of which my only gripe is wind once you get over about 70 mph. So my question is this; does a Uly windscreen help much with the windblast, and if so, is it possible to mount one on a 9sx?

You can get windscreen adapters from Badweb sponsor Palmer Products. I had them about a year ago before switching to the Uly fairing.

Looking to ride 500+ mile days, I experimented with windshields on my former '05sx. I found that the wind really does hold your body up at cruising speeds. It increased the time with pressure on my wrists and shoulders. That was a problem for me and my upper body fatness. I then got higher bars, that in turn necessitated an even higher windshield and made seat comfort an issue. So I bought a Uly. Pricey.....but problem solved.

Just a little something I've been playing with... I'll let you know how it works out. I couldn't bring myself to peel-off the Uly emblem, just in case it doesn't work out.
