Madstad windscreen installation tips 2008 Honda goldwing part 1

Directions weren’t clear on a couple things so I hope this helps someone else. So far I love it!

I've got the '07 and I'm 6 ft and with the OEM screen all the way down the wind was hammering my head to the point of me getting dizzy. I like it at that lowest point because I can look over it a few inches. Does this keep the wind from hammering your head on the freeway?

Yes it does. I have mine set at the lowest position and the wind just clears my helmet. The 16” might be overkill but I like it.

@@opichocal When it's all the way down are you looking over it or through it mostly.. At 6ft I need to look over it an inch or 2 mostly would you recommend the '16?..I dont mind overkill if I can do that. Or the '14 and just raise it to be on the safe side so it's low enough

@@seatime674 I just measured roughly how much I look over my windscreen. I’m 5 foot 11 and my line of sight is about 1.5 inches over the top. I also use an air hawk seat cushion which raises my head up just a little. I’m sure the 14 inch would work fine and you can adjust it up or down as needed and play with angle. I waited to buy mine when it was on sale at 15% off.

@@opichocal OK cool that's a pretty good indicator as with your cushion were the same height so if your still looking over it all the time with the '16 at the lowest then it would do the same for me. I hate looking through it so I may do the '14 just to be on the safe side and I can always raise it..Who knows slightly smaller screen might make bike look a little sportier lol..👍
