Product Information
Full details
The Puig New Generation Sport Screen is an essential upgrade for motorcycle enthusiasts looking to balance aesthetic appeal with functional wind protection. Designed for riders who frequently navigate highways or extended trips, this windshield provides a 130 mm height increase over the stock unit, effectively reducing rider fatigue from wind blast while maintaining a compact, sporty profile. While it significantly improves aerodynamic comfort, riders should note that the compact dimensions are tailored for sport-touring ergonomics rather than full-coverage weather protection provided by larger touring screens.

FAQs
Does this screen work with factory handguards?
Yes, the Puig New Generation Sport Screen is designed to clear standard handlebars and factory handguards without interference.
Is the installation process reversible?
Absolutely. You can remove the Puig screen and reinstall your original factory windshield at any time using the same mounting points.
Does this screen provide full wind protection?
No, it is a 'Sport' screen intended for aerodynamic comfort and aesthetics, not full-body wind coverage like a large touring windshield.
What is the material composition?
It is made from high-impact acrylic, which is chosen for its shatter-resistant properties and optical clarity.
Can I use high-pressure washers to clean the screen?
It is recommended to avoid high-pressure washers near the screen, as they can force water into delicate dash components or cause the screen to vibrate excessively.
Troubleshooting
Noticeable vibration or rattling at high speeds
Check all mounting bolts for tightness and ensure that original rubber bushings or washers are installed correctly between the screen and the cowl.
Surface appears cloudy or has minor scratches
Use a specialized motorcycle windshield polish or plastic restorer to buff out light surface scuffs and restore clarity.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Significantly reduces rider fatigue on long rides
- High-impact material provides excellent durability
- Easy-to-clean scratch-resistant surface
- Enhances the motorcycle's aggressive styling
- Perfect fitment as a direct replacement for the original screen
Cons
- Provides less wind protection than full-sized touring windshields
- May require basic tools for installation
- The clear finish shows fingerprints and dust more than tinted versions
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation of the 6488W screen is designed to be straightforward, typically utilizing the existing mounting points on your motorcycle's headlight cowl.
- Use a soft-tipped screwdriver or hex key to carefully remove the original screen bolts.
- Align the Puig screen with the existing mounting holes, ensuring the rubber washers are correctly seated.
- Tighten the bolts manually, being careful not to overtighten to avoid cracking the acrylic material.
For ongoing care, use a microfiber cloth and a mild soap-and-water solution to clean the screen. Avoid harsh chemicals, alcohol-based cleaners, or abrasive sponges, as these can cloud the clear finish over time. Periodically check the mounting hardware for tightness to ensure the screen remains vibration-free.
