Default Bleh I can't wheelie anymore

Well besides the fact that my bike is too pretty to chance messing up by doing a wheelie I got a chrome windscreen that I can see through now and I did a small sitdown today and was like... damn.. i can't see lol..

This has nothing to do with wheelies but kind of with your post. I see you have a sportech windscreen I have the same one and it doesn't fit well. At the bottom there is about a 1/8 - 1/4 inch gab from the plastic to the windscreen. Also, you know how on our stock windscreens they drilled so there is like a notch for the grommet to sink into and the sportech doesn't have that so everywhere there is one of those bolts to hold it on there is about 1/16 - 1/8 inch gap there. Do you have that problem as well? Up close it looks like total CRAP! The guy told me at the dealership that just the risk you take when you get aftermarket parts.

whoever that guy is working at the shop is an idiot. aftermarket parts are supposed to be a better than oem, if not its the wrong part.
