Default Touring windshield

Anyone have an extra touring windshield for an 87 hurricane? I'm getting old and could use a little more wind protection.

I appreciate the suggestions but some problems are beyond repair.

If you're trying for a higher screen you could add a "lip" to your current one with a bent perspex/lexan sheet. May not be that pretty but it'll help with the wind Pat.
Otherwise e bay UK is a good place to find screens
I found this one, not a high one, but they do come up !

Then there's this very nice one

Looks like a touring screen ?

I fitted a touring screen to my Mk2 a month after I bought it 10+ years ago.
I'd NEVER go back to a standard screen !!!
They make a huge difference.

As Shadow said. I built a laminar lip for mine and fled it provides more than adequate protection along with smoother air around my shoulders and head. Here's what I did:

I would have just posted a picture, but my computer took early retirement and I'm working on the wife's iMac, so no picture available at the moment.

Wow that lip came out great. Pretty sure that's way above my skill level.

I put on a laminar lip within a week of owning mine , really cleaned up the air flow nicely for me .
