In reply to ADStryker. Hi there. Thanks for bringing that up. You are correct about the Puig website. We went back and adjusted the story with a bit more detail about that.

In reply to Paul Tannahill. I definitely agree about the adjustable windshield. Not sure about while you're riding, but it should be tools-free, one hand. That was an immediate complaint about my 800DE. A mechanism like the Triumph's is simple and effective.

You know how features like heated grips, cruise control, quickshifters, etc. have started to become features on ADV bikes that people expect to have? I vote that the next such expected feature be adjustable windshields, and by “adjustable,” I mean while you’re riding, like the awesome one on the KTM 1290 Adventure R.

I had been looking at the Touratech Evo Windscreen Spoiler to add to the top of the short Madstad shield on my BMW F850GS…but, almost $200 for the thing!!! On ebay I found what appears to be a direct copy of the Touratech piece for $19.99, shipping included. I only had a chance to ride with it a couple of times before northern PA winter set in last season. With some quick adjustments in angle and height, the improvement on the highway was noticeable, and it didn’t get in the way of my vision. I haven’t yet seen what it will do on dirt roads, but even if it jumps off into the weeds somewhere, it won’t hurt my wallet much.

FYI, according to the Puig website, no tools are needed to adjust the “multi-adjustable visor 2.0” — and I don’t use tools to adjust the one I have.

I have used the Bolt-on Puig on both my interceptor and Tiger 800. Beautiful and it looks oem. Drilling perfectly and cleanly was easy with a sharp drill bit and the included template. The performance was minimal but noticeable. Adjusting on the fly (when the conditions were safe) was not a problem.
