To many threads to look through, what do you have and like? I like the OEM one that opens a little bit for air movement in summertime but man there expensive. 399 and 499. Been making offers on a OEM on on ebay, have him 100 down on 499 one but wanted to see what others are liking. I dont want half windshield and I dont want to be swapping them out for summer/winter time riding.
Thanks for your help.

I have full OEM windshield hardcoat. Like it. Never driven with it in the summer, so far like it. Planning to add tanning with acrylic colored sheet.

I purchased the extrememetalproducts hard coat with fast straps $199. I like it alot only had it on for two days now but it took me maybe 1 min to put on is hard coated both sides and I can remove it in 30 sec I plan to use in the winter and occasional rain. I am thinking of storing on back of the roll cage in a box or something I would build a roof rack but I am sure I would scratch it up there.

I have the full windshield because I bought it for cold winter drives. They do scratch, so I don't want it on any longer than necessary. At $350.00, I have no intentions of purchasing another. So I kept the box it shipped in and as soon as it's warm enough to ride without it it will go in the box.

I hot this venting windshieldw/hardcoat:
Honda Pioneer 500 Full Venting Windshield W/Hardcoat

It mounts pretty good, though it does not work with the Moose roof as pictured .
I like that the venting is is solid an simple- no extra joints to loosen or rattle.

So far the hardcoat has held up well.

There is an air gap with the honda roof, which I've closed off with foam for the winter. I think it will work great while vented in the summer. The clamps are solid.

Yes that looks like the alumilitearmmor one I was looking at here if I wanted a windshield most or a lot of time I would have bought it and still might someday. Troy is very nice helpful and quick at answering questions.

Nice looking product fit finish on website looks top notch. You get what you pay for and over time I'm guessing it'll be worth it, especially when they develop doors.

Are there any real glass windshields? Preferably that doesn't cost an arm and a leg? I really think it would be beneficial sometimes, but I don't want to worry about it getting all scratched up and worthless.

The ones from alumilitearmor are real glass that is what I wanted too. Now the cost on the other hand you get what you pay for.
