It really helped me to understand wich way to go for the windshield.
Now, I guess I'll have to hound really hard for those windshield brackets...

yup sad to say PC and I have the same windscreen.....I just had the screen replaced because the original was starting to be really bad shape. PC, go to love that huge chrome spot light on the set up as on a sunny day people have to see the sun reflecting off it.......

- April 17, 2016, 07:41:56 AMYes, I cleaned the lights up. They were a low priority item. Some of the last things left over from the P.O.s storing it in a barn for 4 years before I bought it. Replaced the bolts with stainless Allen heads....

Troll, your pics are really helpful and let me understand that the Nomad windshield is not my cup of tea: I don't like to drill ma-deuce.
By the way, as far as I can see those spotlights are a bit rusty... I hope you fixed it, since that... lol...
PC, any pics of your windshield?

- April 16, 2016, 19:13:54 PMI put a Nomad windshield on my 1500, but it wasn't a bolt on proposition. I had to drill and tap the upper clamp and install studs and spacers so the brackets would attach. I took a couple of pics when I put it on in 2012, but didn't get into a lot of details..here's a couple that might help you visualize what I'm talking about

- April 15, 2016, 08:52:29 AMHi guys, I've found via internet a Kawa Nomad's windshield that I'd like to purchase (look picture above), but I dunno if it's usable for ma-deuce...
Any help would be really appreciated.
Thanx.
