Windshield/Wind screen

[wndrsloth]

Hey everyone! I have the MotoSkill headlight rack/guard. Does anyone have a zeta windscreen on with that as well? Wondering if you had to cut the bar or what modifications you may have had to make to install? I have a 2023 if that matters. Thanks!

I think that I had this combo...lots of parts and bits over time....the front rack lost out to the Zeta screen, and if I had the need for the rack, id hack it up and weld up some contraption for my own entertainment

Thank you! Trying to decide which route to go. You loved the Zeta that much?

Sorry, I don’t have both, but I did recently install the Zeta shield. I was impressed with how solid it is, and it seems to function well. When I'm racing down the highway (47 mph), it keeps the wind off my chest. No buffeting noted. I also like the look.

I have the small Zeta screen, it is worse with than without. More buffeting. Do you have a good pic of the larger screen and a link to it? Thanks!

I have both and the Motoskill rack with the windshield and the Zeta small windshield. They won’t work together, have to remove the motoskill one to install Zeta as the top bars end up in the same spot.

QuasiMotard posted a video recently that showed him cruising at around 55 mph. He commented that the Zeta windshield provides enough aero advantage to allow this?? Seems like a stretch. Any other experiences with this?

FF to around 7:00.

The one I bought is the same as the one shown in the video mentioned above. Here's a link to the shield itself. BTW, it’s about 13” tall.

Thanks, that is the one I have now. I think there is a larger one from Zeta?

This add shows the two different sizes of windscreen. I ordered from Beezdeals and got the smaller one as it didn’t say which one. I will be purchasing the larger one for winter riding.

Finally got the results I wanted with my windshield. I had a used replacement WS from my now sold '05 Honda Reflex that I finally found and I compared it to what I had and wanted. With a little lower edge trimming and some holes, it works perfectly for what I need. Last pic is with the small ZETA WS for size comparison.

Wow, that's a barn door of a windshield! Nice work.

Ha ha, thanks. Does what I want and takes all of 2 min. to remove for trail riding.

Does you performance take a hit?

Not sure yet for top end, but ran it to 50 without fanfare.

That’s odd because in the video shared above he’s using both.

Sorry I wasn’t clear on my original post, I have the Motoskill front rack with the windshield and it does not work with the Zeta windshield mount. I see the other rack may not be as tall and maybe angled back a bit more. Attached is the interference on mine.

Ahh that makes more sense! Thank you for clarifying!

Keep us posted on which one you think doesn’t buffet as bad. Or if anyone here recommends one size over the other? I don’t want to purchase two. Haha.
