Motorcycle Windshields: More Than Just Style
Summary:
Motorcycle windshields offer much more than a sleek look; they provide critical protection and comfort. They block debris and insects, and crucially, divert airflow away from the rider, reducing wind fatigue on long journeys.
Windshields have become one of the most popular motorcycle accessories, leading to a wide variety of options on the market. Before purchasing one, consider these five essential factors:
1. The Fit:
Opt for a windshield made by your bike's manufacturer for the best fit. Alternatively, a universal shield can be a versatile option, being lightweight and handlebar-mounted, though it offers basic protection.
2. The Plastic:
Ensure the windshield has high-quality optical properties. Distortions, especially around the edges or curves, can be hazardous.
3. The Size:
Bigger doesn’t always mean better. A tall windshield may block cold winds but can impair visibility in the rain. Short windshields allow airflow in hot weather but might cause turbulence. Consider your bike and riding posture to find the right balance.
4. The Height:
Choose a windshield that sits just below your line of sight when seated comfortably. You should be able to look over it without straining while maintaining the option to look through it when needed.
5. The Mounting System:
Check the mounting system carefully. Ensure cables aren’t bound, and that lighting and brake lines aren’t obstructed. Make sure controls and mirrors have enough space, and confirm that the windshield doesn’t interfere with steering. Always take a cautious test ride after installation.
By keeping these tips in mind, you can find the perfect windshield to enhance both your bike’s performance and your riding experience.
