Hello,

Dear National Cycle

I am still waiting to hear of the availability of a sport/touring windshield for my 2014 Yamaha Super Tenere.
No wind shields are listed on your site for the 2014 model.
Please let me know when these are available.


Answer:


We currently don't have any fitments on this but if we do in the future I will contact you via email.

Thanks,

You might ask if they have a 2014 to build a windshield for.

Word has it that they built the OEM. If so they should know how.

The OEM side deflectors for the '14 are made by National Cycle.

Contacted National Cycle yesterday, still no word on them producing any new windshields for the 2014.

As stated here and elsewhere, Nat'l Cycle produces the OEM tall shield, so they are, in fact, already producing a shield for the 2014. Available at your friendly local Yamaha dealer.

yes, i guess that is right...I am waiting for the sport/touring shield that has such good reports for the pre 2014 models. Anyone have any experience comparing the tall OEM shield vs the National Cycles sport touring version?

I don't have any experience comparing the tall OEM vs. the NC sport touring, but a I can say that the OEM tall on my '14 is far superior to the OEM tall I had on my '12. Previous OEM tall was pretty bad, but new one is pretty danged good.

My thoughts, exactly.

I would order the Yamaha tall or Powerbronze and be done with it. No sense waiting when solutions are available now. Combine either with a Madstad bracket you will be very happy.

It looks like the Yamaha isn't an option right now either. My dealer told me (supposedly) that they are on back order. I can either wait until the end of June or pay a bunch extra to get one of the very few remaining from another dealer. I told him I'll go with another brand.
