The stock windshield on the 1300 Tourer was pretty high in 07. guys were cutting them down. The dealers would would not switch it out for the shorter one. I know they added better fitting bars in later models . I had to install Royal Star bars and throw away the stock ones. Did Yamaha cut down that windshield any on the 2012?
