Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the thickness of the Puig Custom America II windscreen?

The screen is manufactured with a 3mm thick high-impact methacrylate material.

Does this windscreen fit all motorcycle handlebars?

The 5949W is designed with versatility in mind, but it is optimized for custom cruiser-style handlebars. Always verify your specific handlebar diameter before installation.

Can I use glass cleaner on this windscreen?

No, avoid ammonia or alcohol-based glass cleaners, as they can damage the methacrylate surface. Use a mild soap and water solution with a microfiber cloth.

Will this screen reduce wind noise?

Yes, by smoothing out the airflow and reducing turbulence, it significantly decreases wind noise around the rider's helmet.

Is the installation difficult?

The installation is straightforward for most riders; however, it does require a bit of patience to adjust the angle for the most comfortable riding position.

Troubleshooting

Excessive vibration at high speeds

Check all mounting bolts for tightness and ensure the screen is securely seated in the brackets.

Wind hitting the helmet area

Adjust the angle of the windscreen by tilting it slightly forward or backward using the adjustment points on the mounting hardware.

Visibility issues due to water spots

Apply a motorcycle-safe plastic polish or a light hydrophobic coating to help water bead and shed quickly.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable 3mm high-impact methacrylate material
  • Effective wind protection for cruiser-style bikes
  • Aerodynamic shape minimizes buffeting
  • High-clarity finish for excellent visibility
  • Robust construction resists environmental weathering

Cons

  • Requires careful alignment during initial installation
  • May require additional hardware for specific handlebar diameters
  • Not intended for extreme off-road use

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install the 5949W, ensure your handlebar mounting points are clean and free of debris. Begin by loosely attaching the brackets before fine-tuning the angle to match the rake of your front forks. Once the desired position is achieved, tighten all bolts in a cross-pattern to ensure even pressure distribution. For cleaning, always use a soft microfiber cloth and a mild soap-and-water solution; avoid harsh chemicals or alcohol-based cleaners, which can cause the methacrylate to cloud or crack over time.
