That looks like a well made and designed unit. Better than most OEM.

I'm always surprised when it comes to windshields how diverse the opinions are
With regard to buffeting,protection ect.
I personally think the stock screen works surprisingly well for the speeds this bike sees.
I am 6'2" and also like the integrity and stiffness of the 6 screw mount.

I agree. I like Yoo's windshield, and I might get one in the future. It is certainly easy to repeatedly swap windshields on the RX3 for different riding conditions. Nevertheless, I am very pleased with the performance and robust mounting of the stock windshield, and I haven't noticed any shortcomings with it. :)

Yoo, will the stock CSC bar height work with your windshield or do I need to run the risers?

Here is what the it looks like
I have already have
Just waiting for my 2016 to show up

You will also need the risers to clear the larger windscreen

I wanted to say a few things about Yoo's windshield. I purchased mine awhile back and really noticed a difference cruising on the freeway at 75. I have tusk risers and handguards. It took quite a bit of tweaking and a little grinding to get everything to fit nicely at full turn.

However, I recently broke it off while being a dumbass in my garage. I was maunuving the bike to perform an oil change to get it in a good spot before bringing it up on the centerstand and........ blamo! It dropped into my storage cabinet and the windshield burst into pieces.:doh:

Anyway, when I put the OEM back on and rode to work the different was even more noticeable going back. Lots more "wobble" and obviously more wind.

One great thing to note is that Yoo is giving me a discount on a replacement windshield! How cool is that. Thanks Yoo.:tup: I am also getting his risers, so I will have more handlebar and lever positioning options.

Just sent Yoo a message on FB to get a price shipped on the windshield and risers. Don't even have my bike yet....

I ordered a bunch of stuff from CSC and Yoo
And of course I don't have my bike either
At least I got the financing figured out with my credit union

I am concerned about your windshield "burst into pieces". This sounds dangerous - what if a stone flies up from a passing vehicle?

The following is a quote from this article:
http://www.calsci.com/motorcycleinfo...tml#Windshield
"Acrylic is only about 3% as impact resistant as polycarbonate. Normal acrylic shatters upon impact, and therefore is considered an unsafe material for windshields. Acrylic is very chemically resistant, and is more transparent than glass - glass absorbs about half again as much light as acrylic does. Acrylic forms easily at high temperatures, about 300°. However, machining acrylic at room temperature is difficult. It's not very easy to cut acrylic with a saw or drill holes in acrylic without shattering or weakening the material.


Polycarbonate is a DOT approved material for making windshields; normal acrylic is not. Some states require DOT approved windshields, and therefore in these states a normal acrylic windshield is actually illegal, however these laws are rarely enforced. Normal acrylic can be shattered by an impact from a rock moving at speeds as low as 15mph.
We use a special high cost acrylic called Impact Modified Acrylic. This form of acrylic is DOT approved for windshields. We use only DOT certified impact resistant plastics to make Calsci windshields. Our windshields will not shatter if hit by a rock. We test our windshields by shooting them with a .22 caliber rifle and verifying that the windshield maintains its basic integrity without shedding small pieces that could impact your face or eyes. No windshield can protect you against everything, but we do our best to make certain that our windshields protect you against the small rocks frequently thrown up by other vehicle's tires. "

Hi Dan,

I likely used an inappropriate description. It broke into 4 pieces. The breaks were through the attachment holes, eg the weak points. I think I used the burst description because the windsheild was holding the bikes weight for a moment until it gave in. I am pretty certain there is nothing to worry about the quality or integrity of this windshield. It seems to be polycarbonate.

I have a picture that I can send to you or I can add it here when I have more time. Kids are keeping me from spending too much time on forums today:D

Roots, sorry to hear of the drop and resultant windscreen breakage. And thanks for reporting the increased wind and wobble from the stock screen versus Yoo's screen. I think the stock screen does a fine job, but for those folks (like me) who are bigger or sit taller (I do both), Yoo's screen gives me better wind protection.

Also great to read that Yoo is giving you a discount on the replacement! That's great customer service! Way to go, Yoo!

Lastly... I have the Tusk risers and they're quite good. But I think Yoo's risers with the offset would have been a better choice for me as it does bring the bar one inch closer. Let us know how you like Yoo's risers when you get them!

Yoo states in his description that it is made of acrylic.
I am writing to ask what grade of acrylic he is using.

My Windshield, made of acrylic. Normal grade of acrylic. I sold 42 USD the same price all over the world in Thailand, Malaysia US, UK, Columbia, Argentina, Turkey ETC. It's a normal price not expensive, 90% of Windshield in Thailand made from Normal grade of acrylic but never find any problem or accident. I know the Polycarbonate Windshield well, but the price will very high may be 140 USD. (Price in Thailand) I recommend if anyone install my Windshield and handguns you must use bar riser too. Because Handguard it will impact to Windshield. Sometime the normal thing makes the great time for the rider that find the pleasantest thing by the easiest way. I hope my Normal Windshield will always supply for rx3 users. Thank for all support.

Hey detours, I have been considering that windshield also, great review. I like the looks of your rear view mirrors, what brand are they and or where did you get them?

I ordered Yoo's windshield and risers. Cant wait till my bike and parts come in. Yoo ships super fast!

The brand is riderscan you can find in EBAY ,Amezon or http://www.huntercreate.com/
Price: £39.99

is it possible to get one without the mounting holes drilled?

I got the mirrors on Amazon. They're Ken Sean mirrors and only $12 each. Cheap, very little vibration, and they stay where you put them. I also like the extra visibility I get from the square shape.

Right - http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002307QUC

Detours, thanks for that info on the mirrors. I've never been happy with the cut up pattern of the OEM mirrors; here in Iloilo the motorcycle riders pass on the right all the time :ohno: and I can't always see them with the stock mirrors, I'm going to order a set of these Ken Sean. :tup:

Absolutely sure,Sir. Give me your Email and address I will send PAYPAL invoice to you.

Just wanted to show off the rx3 windscreen on a versys. Ordered mine without the mounting holes. Drilled my own holes to mount to Madstad bracket.

Nice screen, those are really fun bikes to ride kohburn. I did a 4500 mile trip on mine in 2011 to Grand Canyon Torroweep, Bryce, Zion, Arches, Moab. Windscreen will pay dividends for you from now on. rj

this is only about an inch taller than the screen i had before, but it looks nicer and i think the shape will provide me with a better pocket of quiet air to sit in.

i'll report on it tomorrow after the daily commute to work.

That windshield looks as if it belongs on the Versys. :tup:

:tup:Good job,Sir.

so far I can report a quieter air pocket and reduced buffeting. very pleased. thanks winyoochanok


so quiet in fact that I'm hearing a lot more road noise form my front tire at all speeds. if I was doing a long trip I'd want earplugs or a different tire.

Welcome,Sir.

My RX3 customer with carbon film all around.

I just found this on Madstad website

Q: Why does MADSTAD use Cast Acrylic instead of Polycarbonate plastic?

Cast acrylic is more rigid, more optically clear, has better scratch resistance, better chemical resistance for cleaning, easier to mold, less costly, and does not cloud or become hazy over time like polycarbonate can. We use a minimum 3/16" (4.5 mm) thick cast acrylic to make all of our windshields so they are nice and rigid, super-clear and easy to maintain.
FYI, the canopy of the F/A-18 Hornet supersonic combat jet is made of cast acrylic. If acrylic is good enough for a military fighter jet it should be good enough for your motorcycle!

Thank you,Sir.

Is there a site for Winyoochanok's line of accessories ?

Can't seem to find it.

I think you still have to message him on Facebook and he'll send you a list.

Are you still using and happy with the Winyoochanok windshield ?
