Description
What’s included in the kit
Our complete drop-in system is custom-made for your bike and includes everything needed to mount and position the shield.
Your bike will not require any modification.
- Black base plate
- MadStad adjustable brackets
- The acrylic windshield
- Pair of black acrylic side deflectors
The base plate assembly attaches to the metal framework of the bike just ahead of the instrument cluster. Our adjustable brackets attach to that base then the shield attaches to the brackets. With the shield separated from the bike you can adjust it for the optimum height, angle and airflow. This lets you set the shield for your particular height and riding position while pulling lots of air underneath it which is critical for smooth comfortable wind protection. Standard side deflectors help block the lower wind coming into your torso for a more comfortable pocket of protection.
Size and Color
While the MadStad windshield systems are fully adjustable, we recommend starting with the appropriate shield size relative to rider height. CHECK THE “HOW TO MEASURE” section below before ordering.
| RIDER HEIGHT | SHIELD SIZE |
|---|---|
| 5’6″ to 5’8″ (168 – 173 cm) | 16″ (40 cm) |
| 5’9″ to 6’0″ (174 – 182 cm) | 18″ (45 cm) |
| 6’1″ and taller (183+ cm) | 20″ (50 cm) |
These are general recommendations and can vary depending on your inseam, seat height and riding position. We can also accommodate extra short or tall riders by special request.
HOW TO MEASURE: Run a tape measure or yard stick straight up from the center of the bike, from just behind the handlebar clamp (see photos). Estimate where your chin level is as you look straight ahead, then add 3 inches to that number. Round up if you get an odd number. This will be the windshield size you should need.
All MadStad windshields are made from 3/16″ (4.5 mm) thick cast acrylic and are available in six different tint colors. See photos bar for comparison image.
