I've been stuck at 1002 miles since November. I'm going out on Lake Winnebago next weekend. Should be able to put on 50-80 miles of ice and snow riding.


I hit 590 miles a week ago plowing snow but since Christmas morning was the last time we have been close to 32* (right now it's -7* with a windchill reading of -24*) so my rig has been stuck in the shop.

I didn't have any luck either. I'm glad I stuck with the plastic boots. They seem a lot more durable than the rubber ones I've used in the past

Call me crazy but I want a little more wind protection for ice riding but I don't want a full windshield or a cab. To me the next best thing is a tinted cab visor.


My Makrolon AR came today. The tint is exactly what I was hoping for. 62x12x 1/4"

Raw material

Layout work with cardboard

Material getting cut down to 54.25" wide

Material test fit. Visor will have 2 bolt on clamps across the top and 2 clamps on the side. Parts are still on order.

Did you cut to match roof contours?

No. There's a small gap above the tube but the visor is even with the top of the roll cage
Got to thinking about, roof flex due to limbs could break visor.

I haven't noticed a lot of roof flex but I don't think there would be any benefit to trying to seal the gap

I do chasing my Dad on his 4 wheeler, low hanging limbs that will squat Rooster to get under them. The visor material, did you custom order the size and tent? Was looking at there site and didn't see any 12 wide stuff, all clamps ordered, now for the visor.

Here's an update on my windshield visor. I ended up with 2 Arctic Cat clamps (sides) and 2 Amazon clamps top. The AC clamps ratchet which allows the windshield to slide in from the side, clip the AC clamps and then install the top clamps.

Marking the mount holes for the Arctic Cat clamps. It's easy to be nervous working with clear plastic but it drills really easy once you're through the hard coat.

Can you use a belt sander on the visor material?

I've prodded our vendors to make some thing like this but nobody did it yet. I've been looking to upgrade to 4 point harnesses, specifically the Dragonfire EVO. I had to have a dedicated harness bar because being at the recommended harness height was important to me. I purchased a Dragonfire RZR-4 rear harness bar and extended it 9-1/4" to match the width of the Pioneer, the 1-3/4" B-pillar. Drivers side is installed and I like the fit. I'll order a passenger side harness this week.
