Installing The T-Rex "Large" Windshield on My 2024 KLX 300

[@davidwilson1134]

Couldn’t the front brake line be mounted below the bracket ?

[@ToddsProjectsandOutdoorJournal]

No. The brake line is not an issue. Once you sit on the bike, it compresses the forks and comes down.

spectacular machine , outstanding looks!

[@ToddsProjectsandOutdoorJournal]

Many thanks!

You could try some split wire loom tubing to protect your brake line.

[@ToddsProjectsandOutdoorJournal]

As it turned out the brake line was not an issue. As soon as you sit on the bike your weight compresses the suspension and the issue goes away. Thanks for the comment.

The bike looks beautiful. I have a 2023 KLX300SM and added the T-Rex windshield too. It made riding on the highway much more comfortable and that extra protection makes the bike feel a bit safer. If you add pannier racks and some soft saddlebags you can turn your KLX into an adventure bike. Take care!

Hello Todd, thanks for sharing your installation and comments on this windscreen. I have the same bike and am looking to mitigate the beffeting that I get riding at 50+ mph or on windy days. Have you seen improvement with buffeting after the install?

[@ToddsProjectsandOutdoorJournal]

With this windshield I get no wind buffeting. This includes running at 70+ mph. Especially when riding in cold weather or rain this windshield is worth its weight in gold. Best of luck...

@ToddsProjectsandOutdoorJournal Thanks a ton Todd!

[@allans7281]

Do you think the small one is just too small

[@ToddsProjectsandOutdoorJournal]

Yes, the large is a good fit and performs very well for me. I would not have been happy with anything smaller. Best of luck ...

[@jettygunster4860]

Do you think it fits on a KLX250 from 2009? I think thye are nearly th same bikes....

[@ToddsProjectsandOutdoorJournal]

I'm not sure. Maybe check their website.

[@blueforest4589]

I thought the lower brackets attached to the upper bolts of the triple clamp. Are the instructions different for a 2023 KLX300?

[@ToddsProjectsandOutdoorJournal]

I've ridden over 1,000 miles with the windshield on and everything is exactly the way it was when I installed it. No issues at all...

[@ccburton1185]

I am guessing you struggled with your install because you installed the bottom brackets using the bottom bolt location on the bike instead of the top bolt location ....watch other people's installation videos and you will see what I'm talking about....

[@ToddsProjectsandOutdoorJournal]

I'll take a look at that, thanks for the tip.
