| | Posted : 04 Jul 2013 - 12:02 Post title : Cee Bailey's Windshield Help | | | Does anyone know where I can find mounting hardware for a Cee Bailey's Windshield? I don't have the Triumph OEM screen.
Appreciate any wisdom that's out there...

I think you might be able to use the National Cycle mount? but not positive if it will fit the bend of the Cee Bailey's curve but then you would have to drill your own mounting holes to fit the Nat. Cycle shield. I would go with the Switchblade mounting as it's really nice to be able to pop off the windshield for warm weather or polishing the aluminum.
As has been pointed out, you could have a large screen and a fly screen and switch them out with the National Cycle stuff. I have not hear many good reports from the National Cycle windshields and not sure how many Thunderbirds are running them. It might just work for you.
The Cee Bailey screen is really good for creating a pocket of calm air. It's so wide that it does telegraph all the various engine noises back and it's loud. I have lately started to ride with out any screen at the expense of being totally covered with gobs of stinking bugs from summer riding. No screen is however so quiet compared to any windshield with my full face helmet.
PS If Clearview windshields would get off their lazy asses there might be even a better option than Cee Bailey-I shipped a bracket and windshield to their R&D person months and months ago. So Clearview if your reading this get going on my screen with the Goldwing vent.
I have had very good results with Clearview in the past on bikes that were near impossible to ride with stock windshields.

That sounds like the right answer. I'm just a little concerned about the impact of having extra holes in the CB screen. I also like the idea easy removal. Be safe. g
