Motorcycle windshield

Motorcycle windshield

Motorcycle windshields or windscreens are clear glass or plastic structures mounted in front of the motorcycle with the primary goal to guard the rider from wind, as well as from airborne hazard, such as rain.

A windshield may be either mounted separately or be an integral part of the motorcycle fairing.

The windshield height, angle, or both may be adjustable, either manual or electronically.
