This windshield is a direct replacement designed specifically for the Honda Gold Wing GL1800 (including the regular and Airbag versions) from 2001 to 2017 models. The core design concept is to solve the shortcomings that the original windshield may encounter during long-distance cycling, such as fogging, optical deformation, insufficient strength, and poor wind noise control. By adopting advanced materials and manufacturing processes, it provides riders with a clearer, safer, and more comfortable protective interface.
Product Features
Material and Craftsmanship
Aviation grade polycarbonate (PC) material: Unlike ordinary acrylic (PMMA) or cheap plastics, this PC material has extremely high impact strength (250 times that of glass and 30 times that of acrylic), but is lighter in weight. Even under the impact of high-speed flying rocks, it is not easy to crack or break, and the safety is extremely high.
Thermoforming technology: This is an advanced manufacturing process. After uniformly heating the PC board to a softened state, it is molded in a precise mold in one go. This ensures excellent optical clarity of the windshield, with almost no visual distortion, providing riders with a realistic and undistorted view, reducing visual fatigue caused by prolonged cycling.
Core Functionality
Hard Coating: PC material itself has average wear resistance, so a hard silicon-based coating is applied to its surface. This coating can effectively resist scratches (such as during cleaning, dust particles), maintain long-term transparency of the windshield, and extend its service life.
Fog Free technology: This is one of the most critical features. The anti fog layer is not simply a film, but a permanent hydrophilic anti fog coating integrated on the inner surface of the windshield through a special process. It can absorb and diffuse internal moisture (such as breathing, rainy days), prevent water vapor from condensing into fog, and ensure that the inside of the windshield is always clear in cold, humid or rainy weather. Please note that the anti fog coating is only on the inner side. When cleaning, use a soft damp cloth and neutral cleaning agent to avoid forcefully wiping or damaging the coating with chemical solvents.
Size and Design
25 inch height: This is a very popular compromise height. It has a higher windshield than the original factory low windshield, providing better storm and weather protection for the vast majority of riders, effectively guiding airflow through the top of the helmet, reducing wind noise and fatigue during long-distance cycling. At the same time, unlike a high windshield (such as over 30 inches) that may completely isolate airflow, it can still ensure certain ventilation in hot weather without affecting the overall appearance and center of gravity of the vehicle.
Version Selection
Standard Version
Features: Better overall sealing, providing maximum protection against wind, rain, and cold weather.
Applicable scenarios: Suitable for riders who often ride in cold and rainy areas, or those who pursue a peaceful cockpit environment. In winter, it can completely isolate cold air from the outside.
Ventilation Version
Feature: An adjustable sliding vent is integrated in the center of the windshield bottom.
Advantage: Summer ventilation: In hot weather, opening the ventilation opening can introduce cool external air into the cockpit, effectively reducing the stuffiness and moisture accumulation in the chest.
Anti fog assistance: In humid weather, even if a small air vent is turned on, it can promote the circulation of internal and external air, assist in anti fog function, and eliminate inner fog faster.
Adjusting air pressure: helps balance the air pressure before and after the windshield, which may reduce wind noise and helmet shaking.
Applicable Scenarios: Suitable for users riding in areas with variable climate or hot summers, pursuing multifunctionality and on-demand adjustment capabilities.
Installation and Maintenance
Plug and play: Retain the original installation point without additional modifications, and can be fixed using the original car screws and brackets.
Cleaning advice: It is recommended to use neutral cleaning agents and a soft cloth to wipe, to avoid alcohol or strong solvents damaging the anti fog coating.
Compared to the Original Factory Windshield
Performance upgrade: Compared to the original Honda base model, this model has better anti fog, scratch resistance, and optical performance, especially suitable for extreme weather or long-distance motorcycles.
Lightweight: PC material is lighter than glass, reducing the burden on the front of the car and slightly improving handling sensitivity.
