Short report on the new V-Stream shield. I will add more when I return from a trip this week.'
Instead of buying a new Parabellum windshield I decided to try the new V-Stream. The shipping was very fast and nice people to work with. They answered all of my questions about testing and hard coating. They bought a new Super Tenere to use for testing and made various screens until one was found to be the best. I liked that attention to making the correct product.
The hard coating is to eliminate scratches and so far it looks like it may work. I bought the mid size with lite grey tint.
I removed the shield from the box and found it to be well wrapped and in almost great condition. More on that later.'
I had removed the stock shield so began mounting the new one. Everything went very smooth. The holes all lined up with no surprises.
It is a good looking screen and well made. About 3.5mm thick.
Now for the good and bad. I noticed some fine scratches on the shield near the V emblem(silk screened, and then covered with coating).
I thought it may have been something on the shield and used a cloth for glasses with some water, but was still there.
Now the good point. I called and talked with Paul who could not believe it at first. These people are very proud of their products and want to make sure you are also.
We came to the conclusion the very fine scratches were on the shield prior to coating and I was given a RMA # .
I am leaving on a trip on Wednesday and was told to use the shield and send it back when I returned.
I am very happy with the way it was handled.
That's about it, until I return.. ::025::
