    I've never ridden with a windshield before and never knew you weren't supposed to look through it but over it, I'm getting a cruiser soon so this'll come in handy if I decide to put one on. Thnx bro

    My RK windshield is way too tall. Thanks for clarifying the measurement points. Since I have an existing windshield, I think I’ll take a dry erase marker on a ride and mark a line on the plexiglass that I can easily see over. Then measure as you stated from the bottom up.

    I have a standard windshield on a 2017 HD trike. Sorry, but I have to disagree with your analysis on height. I was sick and tired of getting hit in the face with bugs and gravel. I went to my favorite hardware store, bought a panel of 2 foot by 3 foot Lexacon and cut it into a windshield that was 6 1/2" taller that the old one. It was the best move I ever made. I totally made the best move by making my own. Thanks.

    Hello, I was wondering what angle most motor cycle windshields are mounted at, are they adjustable and if so what is the minimum and maximum. I would really appreciate if you could reply I'm actually working on a different type of windshield that would be much smaller.
    Thank you and hope to hear back soon

    i think doing this leaves room for error. I read place an object 50 ft in front of bike, you need to see that over windshield to judge height/

    Nice video. But why did he not talk about the width of the front forks!? This is important! Not all windshields are universal. The hardware or clamps that are used must be at a particular width for the mounting of a windshield. I have a Harley Davidson quick release clamp setup on my windshield which will not fit any of my neighbors or friends bikes. It is not custom made. But you must get the right width for it to fit the front fork on your particular motorcycle.
