Congrats on the purchase of the Smax. Great looking bike. (Of course, I'm a bit prejudiced.) I just purchased an Smax but haven't picked it up yet because I'm waiting to complete the MSF safety/certification class -- hopefully by this Sunday -- so I can get my license upgraded on Monday and pick up the scooter on Tuesday. The question I have is this: Does the Smax have an adjustable windscreen? I saw something very similar as an after market product -- with the opening at the bottom and all the hardware on the surface of the screen -- and that one was adjustable (Frustratingly, I can't find a link to that one now.) When I called the dealer and asked the service tech he said it doesn't have an adjustable screen. Any help would be appreciated.
Also I'm interested in the riding position of ducking down behind the windscreen to get that full protection. Are you just leaning forward instead of sitting fully upright? (I'm about 5'7"/5'8" and I've read so many differing opinions about windscreens in general that I was curious about how this one works. It would be great if I could get those kind of results without having to go the after market route for a ws.)
Finally, I got these two products from Amazon to add a 12v socket on the handlebars so I can use my Garmin GPS (which I'll connect to the windscreen via a suction mount; the 12v socket is directly connected to the engine):

When I actually have the bike in my possession I will post photos.
