National Cycle: Recent new windshield designs from the market-leading Maywood, Illinois based
manufacturer include a choice of VStream windshield upgrades for Indian Chieftain and Roadmaster
models from 2014-2018. Taking its name from its unique patented shape, the advanced “V” profile
and dimensional contours of VStream windshields that push the wind vortex out and away from the
rider’s helmet result in a quieter and less turbulent riding environment. Made from tough, high
quality 4.5 mm Quantum hardcoated polycarbonate, using National Cycle’s state-of-the-art
manufacturing techniques, the company says that they “provide outstanding clarity, impact strength
and scratch resistance - unmatched by any windscreen maker worldwide. “Quantum hardcoated
polycarbonate is the material of choice for serious motorcycle riders - it is 10 times more abrasion
resistant than FMR hardcoated polycarbonate, and 30 times more than windscreens made from
commonly used acrylic or “aircraft plastic”; www.nationalcycle.com
Paaschburg & Wunderlich: The distributor and parts and accessory designer made the headlines
earlier this year when it announced its acquisition of German parts maker and bike builder LSL
Motorradtechnik GmbH from founder and former Harley dealer Jochen Schmitz-Linkweiler. Noted
for top-end parts and expansive series production ‘Clubman’ and specials bike building programs,
LSL warehousing and sales activities have been relocated to the P&W facility at Glinde, near
Hamburg. The LSL development department, design and engineering teams have stayed at the
existing LSL facility at Krefeld under the continuing leadership of Schmitz-Linkweiler. P&W existing
own brands include HIGHSIDER, Shin Yo, Takkoni and Moto Professional; www.pwonline.de;
