Puig® - Rafale Windshield

I was looking for a windshield for my 2001 Suzuki GS500 and most shields were $$$. Revzilla and others have good stuff, but for a "luxury" item like this I figured there isn't much to break. The Good: -Cheap -Fits 7" headlight -Adds a bit of style to a naked The bad: -May have to adjust which spacers you use and where, if you need them at all. -Bit of a gap over my headlight -Doesn't protect me from the wind as much as I had hoped Overall it is a fine product, nothing particularly noteworthy about it.

I upgraded the stock windshield to a taller Givi brand. However, the plastic is thin, and they added about an inch of additional rubber cushioning to provide clearance from the handlebars when on full lock. The effect is it shakes a lot and you get a buffeting effect of wind hitting you on anything but smooth roads. I decided to try the Puig, which is about the same price. It is much stronger than the Givi and the shaking is mostly eliminated by comparison. I definitely recommend the Puig if you are looking for a taller windshield.

This windshield is perfect. Fits all Triumph T-100 and T-120 from 2017 to present. Provides superior wind protection and deflection making it 100 percent comfortable to travel at all highway speeds.

This Puig touring screen is a perfect windbreak for my FJ09 and my 6'2" height. Worth the price and much better than the stock screen.

Easy to install. Looks nice and works well. Mounting hardware could be better, cheap aluminum bracket.

Excellent fit and install, really knocks the wind down!

I received the windshield in a timely manner. The installation was easy, a matter of minutes. I'm so glad to have purchased it. Highway has been made much more comfortable.

I received the product and the box was not in very good shape, but nothing was broken. The instructions are terrible, but most people should be able to figure it out with little logical thinking. I wasn't very impressed with the installation brackets, but I installed the windshield anyway. The handle bar mounting brackets were okay, but the "ball" mounting brackets to the windshield were questionable. My first ride, I only got about 20 feet and had to return home to adjust the windshield for vibrations. I adjusted the windshield several times, but always at speeds above 50 mph, the windshield would start coming back on me. I got on it the last time I road with the windshield and the top of the windshield pivoted back and almost hit me in the face (scared the hell out of me). The "ball" mounts on the windshield do not hold no matter how tight I got them (any more tightening and the bracket would have broke). I saw one other review that said this windshield would only be safe on a moped and I agree. I loved the windshield design and would put it on my Ducati Hypermotar in a second, if they improved the mounting for safety.

Some of the worst craftsmanship of equipment I have ever seen. Instructions are atrocious. There is easily a 60 percent chance it won't fit your application. The hardware is trash. You would be better off making your own brackets and adding the screen. The screen itself is fine. But Jesus. I can't remember a time I was more disappointed in a brand name product.

Fitted to my supercharged Triumph Thruxton. Instructions supplied were very good and fitting was easy. Drilled and tapped bolt hole for screen angle support as no room behind headlight for a nut. Now gives me good wind protection for long journeys. Highly recommended.
