New shield on Reckless batwing

**plumber63** · 08-23-2014, 11:13 AM

I replace my reckless shield (junk, broke when taking off) with a Memphis shade recurve. I was considering a Long Ride flattop, but wanted a gradient fade shield like I had on my memphis batwing and check memphis site and they had what I was looking for. I also like the looks better than the Flattop, doesn't curve in on the sides. As for quality Its really nice at least 1/3 thicker than the stock shield and lot better finish. its the 9". The wind protection seems good. some before and after pics. and one from the seat at about my eye level.

The shield that Reckless ships with its fairings is junk. Mine looked like it was cut out by a kid in shop class. It went straight in the trash and I've used nothing but Fastaire shields since, even on my new bike.
