Here are some of the comments from riders who have tried our RoboBracket system:
(Honda VFR800) - Unbelievable. There is no wind or air pressure on my body, neck or head; all the airflow just shoots up over my helmet. There's only one problem: without the air pressure on my body, I don't realize how fast I'm going! I'm hitting 65 mph on a 45mph road before I even notice it. Even at highway speeds I have nothing but calm air in front of me. Awesome! - M.S.
(Triumph Tiger 1050) - This is a great shield, quieter ride, much better protection over the stock shields and no turbulence. This is the shield I have been looking for ...this is a very comfortable ride behind this shield, keeps the wind off of me and riding two up works just as good as solo. – E.S.
(Triumph Tiger 1050) - As I suspected the system is very stable even in the up positions at high speed. That is important to me as I'm sure it will be to most people. It is surprising that some lower settings can work very well on the highway as well. In other words higher is not always the best, my "highway" position is not on the highest settings. To sum up, yes, this is what I've been looking for. I can't see how anybody wouldn't be able to find some good settings. - J.W.
(Triumph Tiger 1050) - Can’t possibly get any better than this. Tested over triple digits, very sturdy. - D.H.
(Suzuki Bandit 1250) - All I can say is I am very pleased with the new set up. It makes all the difference in wind protection for me and I could now use this bike to ride cross country now with this amount of wind protection. I have tried just about every screen you can have (double bubble, MRA vario, Givi, ZG touring) and while the best to date was the new ZG touring it still had too much wind blast at speed on my arms and shoulders and the wind hit me at the base of the helmet. The set up from you I just mounted has the wind off of my arms and is hitting me in the middle of the shield. It was quiet and smooth up to about 80 where I backed off. I could ride across the country tomorrow with this set up now, and it also in my opinion looks pretty good too. Sweet!!! – J.R.
(Kawasaki KLR650) - I settled on a setting with a slight tilt and amazingly about 4 to 5 inches lower than the original screen. I did all my testing at 70mph indicated (65 mph actual). I have to say the lower screen height is amazing when hitting crosswinds and semi-truck wash. With the old screen moderate head shaking occurred, now nothing. Huge difference. – M.B.
(Can-Am Spyder) - I have found that with the Robobracket from MadStad and their 20" shield I get the best overall wind protection of any I have tried so far. It is amazing how a smaller shield that looks nice on the spyder does the best job. I sincerely believe it has to do with the adjustability of the brackets, enabling you to set the shield to your preferences.– D.T.
(BMW F800ST) - The quiet air bubble isn't as large as that provided by my previous motorcycle (R1100RT) but is excellent considering how narrow your screen is across the top and the fact that this final position is well below my line of sight, so low that I can't believe it's working this well. The space between the cowl and screen (approx 1 inch at the bottom) appears to contribute to improved laminar air flow and resulted in no significant buffeting around my helmet at any of the tested screen heights/angles. Just the smooth laminar air flow is an unbelievable improvement over the OEM or the 18 inch VStream screens previously installed on my BMW F800ST and is sufficient reason to change to your system. - J.G. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
RoboBrackets achieve what no other aftermarket shield can, because they free your bike from the constraints of the stock shield mounts. It doesn't matter what height you are, what seating position you have, risers or no risers. There are so many adjustment positions that virtually any rider can find his or her ideal comfort setting. The same adjustable shield can work for a 170 cm (5'7") rider as well as it does for a 193cm (6'4") rider.
Another great advantage of our system is that a smaller windshield can perform better than a larger one. That is a tough concept to get used to! Touring shields are often huge because they try to hide you from the turbulence, but why would you want a big plastic sail on the front of your bike? It will hurt your mileage, catch crosswinds that push your bike around, looks ugly and creates a greater vacuum behind it which can actually make buffeting worse. With RoboBrackets installed, a smaller shield will produce no vacuum, no turbulence and can direct smooth airflow exactly where you want it. Many motorcycles actually become more stable with RoboBrackets installed, and users have been amazed at the improvement in their riding comfort with a smaller shield.
We've tested RoboBrackets on a wide variety of bikes and the results are always the same: smoother airflow and improved comfort, even at 100+ mph speeds (165 kph). Why would you want to spend hundreds of dollars buying several different fixed shields, trying to find one that works specifically for you? You will find yourself with a stack of used shields, a thinner wallet, and still no solution to your problem. Now you can have a single windshield system that adapts itself to the rider, not the other way around.
