Product Information
Full details
The Puig Z-Racing Windshield is an ideal upgrade for Yamaha YZF-R1 owners seeking improved aerodynamic performance and a refined aesthetic. Engineered to deflect wind away from the rider's torso and helmet, this screen offers a more comfortable high-speed experience through its double-height design. While it significantly improves airflow compared to the factory component, riders should note that the aggressive racing profile may slightly alter the visual field when tucked in low at high speeds.

FAQs
Is the Puig Z-Racing screen compatible with my 2015 Yamaha R1?
No, this specific model (4935N) is designed specifically for the 2009-2014 generation of the Yamaha YZF-R1.
Does this screen require extra hardware to install?
No, it is designed to use the original factory hardware from your bike.
What is the benefit of the 'Double-Height' design?
The double-height design creates a larger air pocket for the rider, reducing wind pressure and turbulence compared to the flatter OEM screen.
Can I use an automatic car wash or pressure washer on this screen?
It is not recommended. High-pressure water can force debris into the mounting points and cause structural damage; hand-washing is the safest method.
Is the screen street legal?
Yes, it meets German TÜV safety standards, making it suitable for road use in most jurisdictions.
Will this screen prevent all wind noise?
While it significantly reduces wind noise and buffeting by redirecting airflow, it cannot eliminate it entirely as wind resistance varies based on rider height and helmet aerodynamics.
Troubleshooting
The screen vibrates at high speeds
Ensure all mounting screws are properly seated and tightened to the manufacturer's torque specifications.
Installation holes do not line up perfectly
Check that you are using the correct model year (2009-2014) and ensure the screen is not being pinched by existing fairing components.
Surface scratches appear after cleaning
Always use a clean, microfiber cloth. Avoid using paper towels or dirty rags, which can trap abrasive dust particles.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility: This screen is specifically designed for the Yamaha 1000 YZF R1 models manufactured between 2009 and 2014. It utilizes the stock mounting points for a seamless fit.
Installation:
- Remove the existing mounting screws from your stock windshield.
- Carefully lift the original screen away, taking note of any rubber grommets or spacers.
- Align the Puig screen with the existing mounting holes.
- Reinstall the original screws, tightening them until snug (do not overtighten to avoid cracking the acrylic).
Care Instructions: Clean the windshield using a soft microfiber cloth and a mild soap-and-water solution. Avoid harsh chemicals, degreasers, or alcohol-based cleaners, as these can cloud or damage the acrylic finish.
