    New to the forum. I live in Boston and after 20 yr of absence I started motorcycle riding! Got 2014 Triumph America (brand new with 30 miles).
    Nice mid size bike, I like is so far a lot, bit under power but easy to ride. The only issue I have is the wind ( I have large windshield) at 70 miles per hour I can "barely" stay on the seat , my helmet want to came off ! I have seen people installed fork fairings to help with the wind and it helps, but I can't find them anywhere. I looked all over the internet , called Triumph , spoke to few distributor. Anyone has an idea where to buy them?

    Andy Biker.
    Welcome to the family. Yes know where you are coming from there. I get bad wind. So much so Tracy tells me to sit in the garden. But when i had my thunderbird. I purchased a triumph screen and fitted the Memphis blade. I had to drill the holes a pinch but it was the best screen i ever had. We also need a picture of the steed so hit the upload a file button bottom right corner and show the inmates your pride and joy.
    Regards
    Joe

    exactly what I thought @stevethegoolie folk must consider the title of these threads, you think you are getting some shared sound advice about trouser coughs and what do you find bike problems "Christ" :blush:
