The main problem is that it covers almost all of the left side of the speedo. This is the side you are really interested in as it start from 0 and goes up!. It is also very fiddly to put on. You will need to spend some time and the potential to scratch your screen is a problem. There are no instructions, although it is pretty straight forward to put on & you do NEED slightly longer bolts for the outside of the screen. I was unaware of how much tension the screen was under when it is mounted within the frame. While the holes do line up perfectly, the end result is very disappointing due to the outside pockets covering the Speedo and Tacho. It is handy to throw your keys and phone in but these pockets are also NOT waterproof, so if it rains, you items will get wet. All up I wouldn't buy it again. It probably works well on a bike where the speedo is on the tank, not on the bars, like the Valkyrie. Review Details  2 out of 2 members found this review helpful. Was this review helpful to you?

This pouch storage system would be worth the extravagant price you'll pay for some plastic and thread. Review Details  3 out of 4 members found this review helpful. Was this review helpful to you?

Read the many reviews on this site and it helped give me ideas to custom mount in the middle of the bag to avoid the sag. Not sure if the ends will stick out of the end of the windshield. Will rate later Review Details  Was this review helpful to you? Yes No

It looks good but it doesn't hold enough. I wish they would make the middle pouch height longer so that it could hold a few pairs of sunglasses or gauntlet gloves, etc. as there is plenty of room on the windshield for it. As for installation... I had my guy modify it. We cut off the plastic lower end with the holes and drilled new holes 1/3 of the way up from the bottom backing using the plastic piece as a template. This brought the pouches down a bit (I'm a petite 5'2") so that I could see over them and also will help prevent the "sagging" that others talked about.

The washers supplied aren't big enough. i.e, the holes in the pouch are the same size as the washer so they'll come off easy. Also, as soon as you start putting stuff in it, it droops forward. I even tried using velcro across the top to velcro it to the windhsield so it wouldn't droop but between heat and rain....that didn't work. At some point, I'll be looking for a new windshield bag...
