Hey Bigiron. I would agree with you on the wind hitting the helmet but I don't really have that problem. I wear a half helmet so I am just feeling the normal "wind" coming from around the bike. The shield is high enough so the air is deflected just above my head from what I can tell. I do have a new shield coming so maybe that will help. I tried looking through the windshield when I first got it and just never did get comfortable with it. The pain is right in the middle of what you described so maybe it is both!

Yeah I was too lazy to type all that haha. I have a windshield and lowers so no buffeting. I have a mustang seat with backrest. I will say I added the lowering kit BEFORE I got the mustang seat. So it may be the combination of stock height and the seat that introduced this. I also had to cut the shield down after lowering to see over it. I have it propped forward now though to raise it a little until I get a new shield. I have wind coming around the shield but not really into my face; I don't think that's the problem. I raised the bars pretty high this morning and I think I like it but my wrists are at an awkward angle now. I shouldn't have to go with new bars since they were comfortable before but I have been wrong before.

I have just recently returned my bike to stock height after having a 2" lowering kit on it. I am noticing a little neck pain and believed it to be due to handlebar position. I add a set of 2"" riser spacers to bring the bars up 2" and back about 3/4". Can anyone give me any good tips as to proper handlebar position. I know it is a personal taste and feel thing but any experience would be appreciated. Thanks! This is a Suzuki Boulevard C50T.

You probably just made a number of guys (including me) unholster and rack the slide. Good luck with shining it up.

That's funny! OP do you mind if this turns into a Chuck Norris quote page??

WHAAAAAAT???!! Explosions and guns= Good time

Better not doubt Chuck Norris........

BFG AT's FTW!

I thought the same thing but I think he meant it to be more generalized and not if you just saw a random person laying bleeding on the streets. I have the same beliefs but the bible also teaches many other things in regards to taking care of you wife and kids. Again lots of variables.

Pretty sure it was Lethal Weapon. He always had that look in his eye too.

Well it doesn't help that I watched them ALL during the season three preview weekend. I will say the black and white first episode was awesome. Season three looks amazing compared to the first two (which were also great). I like the fact that they will be running two different stories (one in town and one in the prison).

That was one of the hardest things for me to break myself of. That and drawing and firing only two shots every time.

Just watched the trailer.. OH MAN OH MAN OH MAN!!!

Heck we mine as well pay for everyone else's food and shelter while we are at it.......oh wait... (A stretch I know but that kind of mindset is why I believe people are so dependent on others for help now and almost expect it). I would not go so far as to say that I would NEVER help someone in need with deadly force but again as others have said there are so many variable to consider it would be tough. I do all I can to prepare myself and my wife for any and all bad things that may happen but I have no illusion that we are bulletproof. I think others should do the same. If something were to happen to her or myself and I needed help I would hope someone would act but I would know they have themselves to consider first.

Memphis... also haven't been in a gunfight and hope to never be. I will hopefully be over prepared if it does happen though.

As stated earlier what if the woman initiated the confrontation by stabbing the supposed bad guy first and he took the weapon and used it in self defense. Far fetched I know but there can be alot of "what if's".

Just a final note on this and hopefully I can leave my at the door. (It's so hard!) I hope I did not offend anyone with my opinions as it was not my intention.

I would be really careful with that line of thinking. I am not suggesting you are wrong in helping someone in need but sometimes it's best to to not get involved. Just because I have my gun doesn't mean I should use it. Sometimes 911 and leave may be the best option.

I consider myself a man but my responsibility (based on my religious beliefs of course) are to my wife, myself and my children in that order. If I do something that lands me in prison I am not there to protect them at all. Just my opinion though and it ain't worth much nowadays.

HA! Well I actually prefer the Gen 2 Grip. Maybe that's there angle on that one.

He didn't hold the door open and shoot at them from what I saw. He fired at them multiple times until they left and THEN the threat was over. In the training I have taken I have learned that you cannot expect to always have a perfect shot at the BG by standing still the whole time. As far as I am concerned he could have been moving not only to get a better shot at the BG but getting the other folks out of the line of fire. I will say he was awful close to a few folks but in the end no one was shot but the BG.

I would probably just call 911 and leave. I am with alot of you in that it would be painful to watch and not do something. Therefor if I call it in and get out of there. I am no longer involved and can't make a stupid decision. I might not sleep well knowing I MIGHT could have helped but I WILL be at home with my family and not in jail. It's sad that the world is like this today but honestly I carry for my sake as well as close loved one's. Everyone else should do the same. This is definitely a hairy situation.

!!!! Must have been the super duper tacticool model.
