All along I have been thinking I liked it at the 6 inch size and that is what I was going to go with. I could hardly wait until I got home from work because today was the day.
As I stated earlier, this is a lot easier with a bandsaw and my old Craftsman was just the right machine for the job.
The reason I haven't done this sooner is because I didn't want the rat-tail antenna from the Cycle Sound system sticking up further than the windscreen and until recently, I didn't have a proper antenna for the GoldWing. that changed recently when I picked up some parts in New York. I also had the chrome trim piece, and I actually almost forgot to put the dang thing on! So... here is what I wound up with:
I painted the inside of the windscreen black to "conceal" certain things that I place on top of the Cycle Sound pod as I am riding down the road...
I went for a ride this evening and oh I think this is something that will be nice in the hot months ahead.
