FAQs

What material is the WRS windscreen made from?

The windscreen is made from high-quality PMMA plexiglass, known for its durability and optical clarity.

Will this windscreen fit my Honda XL 700 V if it's a 2014 model?

No, this specific windscreen is designed only for Honda XL 700 V models from 2008 to 2013. Please check for other compatible models if you have a different year.

How does this windscreen reduce turbulence?

The windscreen's shape and height are engineered to re-route airflow around the rider's shoulders and helmet, smoothing out turbulent eddies and reducing buffeting.

Is this windscreen difficult to install?

Installation is generally straightforward, using the bike's original mounting points. However, some basic mechanical knowledge may be helpful. Refer to your motorcycle's manual for guidance.

Can I use regular glass cleaner on this windscreen?

It is not recommended to use regular glass cleaners, as they can contain harsh chemicals that may damage the plexiglass. Use a mild soap and water solution or a dedicated plastic cleaner.

Does the clear version offer UV protection?

While PMMA plexiglass offers some inherent UV resistance, specific UV-protective coatings are not usually a standard feature unless explicitly stated by the manufacturer. Prolonged exposure to intense sunlight should still be minimized.

Troubleshooting

Windscreen vibrates at high speeds.

Check that all mounting bolts are securely tightened. Ensure no foreign objects are trapped between the windscreen and the mounting brackets.

Reduced visibility through the windscreen.

Clean the windscreen thoroughly with a soft cloth and mild soap. Ensure no protective film remains if it was newly installed.

Difficulty aligning mounting holes during installation.

Loosen existing bolts on the bike's mounting points slightly to allow for adjustment. Do not force the windscreen into place; ensure alignment before tightening all bolts.

Pros and Cons

  • Made from durable, high-quality materials.
  • Designed for a precise fit on the specified models.

Cons

  • Installation may require some mechanical aptitude.
  • Primarily designed for comfort and turbulence reduction, not extreme weather protection.
  • The clear finish may be prone to scratches if not properly maintained.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: This windscreen is specifically designed for the Honda XL 700 V models manufactured between 2008 and 2013. Ensure your motorcycle's model year falls within this range.

Setup: Installation typically involves removing the original windscreen (if present) and securing the WRS windscreen using the bike's original mounting points and hardware. It is recommended to consult your Honda XL 700 V owner's manual for specific disassembly and reassembly instructions for the windscreen area. Ensure all bolts are tightened securely but avoid over-tightening to prevent damage to the plexiglass.

Care: Clean the windscreen regularly with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners, paper towels, or harsh chemicals, as these can scratch or damage the PMMA plexiglass. For stubborn grime, a dedicated motorcycle plastic cleaner can be used. Store the motorcycle in a shaded area when possible to prevent prolonged exposure to harsh sunlight.
