Clearview Windshield

[indydog]

We had a couple of nice days and I was able to get out for a ride. I had picked up some road crud and so I decided to clean the windshield. That is when I found it very loose.

 

I popped the trim piece and found four very loose screws and one completely out. I could not believe they had grown so loose on 2,000 miles since install. When I installed the windshield, I had tightened the screws as much as possible after hearing the problems one of our members had with his windshield coming off at 60 mph.

 

Just wanted to let anyone with a Clearview Windshield to know they may need to check the windshield.

Cougar,

 

Did you put Lock-Tite on the windshield bolts?

[Cougar]

The first time I did. I have had the front of

that bike apart I don't know how many times

now. and I did notice that they were kind of loose.

 

So after the first time. they just kind of got that

coating around them and have been fine ever since.

 

Pobably I will do it again next time.

I checked mine the last time I was into the fairing. The bolts were tight, but it couldn't hurt to put a little lock tite on them to be safe.
