Powersports Windshields & Windscreens

There are plenty of powersports accessories out there designed to provide outdoor enthusiasts and people who use their machines for work with greater comfort, safety, and convenience. Powersports windshields and windscreens can surely offer improvements in riding experience whether you use a snowmobile, ATV, or UTV. The name of these accessories speaks for itself. They shield the rider from wind, rain, snow, mud, dust, and other road and trail debris. A high-quality windshield can even protect you from injuries caused by pointy branches and logs. These products can be made from laminated safety glass, acrylic, or coated or non-coated polycarbonate.

Each of the materials has its pros and cons. The choice depends on your preferences, riding conditions, and your willingness to pay more for higher quality. Glass is crystal clear and scratch-resistant, but it can be fairly fragile when it comes to withstanding impacts from flying rocks. Acrylic is stronger and more affordable. It is a clear UV-resistant material, but it can be easily scratched by thick bushes, tree branches, or careless cleaning. Although, it can be polished if needed. Windshields made of polycarbonate are the strongest and priciest among them all. They may feature hard coatings on the outer or both sides making them almost indestructible and completely scratch-free.

On the digital shelves of our online store, you can find a wide range of hard and soft windscreens for UTVs, ATVs, and snowmobiles. Such accessories are very popular with users who tend to use their machines in cold weather or like to ride in groups. In the case of a UTV, for example, a full windshield makes the cabin much warmer. Some models feature vents or tilting construction to provide the flow of fresh air on the inner surface of the windscreen, which prevents fogging. The most significant downside of the full UTV windscreen might be in reduced visibility on muddy terrain.

The problem of sticking mud and dust can be solved with more expensive versions of UTV windshields featuring washers and wipers or flip up construction with gas struts to hold them in an open position. The more affordable solutions include half-shields that redirect airflow over the roof thanks to a lip on their top edge or mesh windscreens that don’t allow mud to stick to their surface. A rear windshield reduces the lowered pressure effect in the cabin and doesn’t allow dust to be sucked inside. You can completely insulate the cabin of your UTV by using full doors.

In ATVs, windshields perform the role of fairings that can deflect wind, snow, rain, debris, and mud on the trail. Such an accessory can protect not only the face and torso of the rider but also his or her hands making the ride in harsh conditions warmer and much more pleasant. We carry models with a universal mounting system that can be easily clamped to the majority of ATV and snowmobile handlebars. Some windscreens come with quick-release clamps for fast and easy removal in case you’d like to feel a warm breeze on your face when the weather is nice. Also, we offer windshields for snowmobiles of different sizes. If you tend to cover long distances on your sled, consider choosing a large windscreen with hand protection. For racing applications, you can use a low-profile windshield for better aerodynamics.
