mpg increase

I replaced my stock windshield with a tall Show Chrome unit and today rode 200 miles and got 2-3 mpg better at 65-70 mph.

Go's against conventional wisdom, I put a Large Memphis Shades on my 03 VTX C [1800] And it knocked off at least 4 miles per gal highway.

Depends on the angle and contour of
the shiel.

I hope I experience the same MPG increase as the OP did.

I just replaced my Showchrome WS with one from Big Bike. I know they're the same company as the new WS has the Showchrome insignia on it. I thought my Showchrome was taller & wider than the OEM one and thought I was getting the same one, only tinted. The one I received is about 3.5" taller than the one I took off and I'm looking thru it even at the lowest setting. Guess I could cut it down if I need to.
