Windbender-HP Adjustable from 15-19"
Note: F6B Windbender Base Units are available in Dark Smoke only.
HP Series is a High Performance Adjustable Windshield is designed to LOOK OVER instead of LOOKING THRU like other windshields. Windbender windshields are designed to eliminate wind buffeting issues, caused by backpressure, for the rider and co-rider to extend riding comfort.
Unlike any other Gold Wing windshield on the market, we wanted to be able to see over it like it wasn’t even there. Our new manufacturing process has greatly improved the quality of our product, but due to the recurve at the top of this shield, there is some distortion while looking through it. Remember . . . we want to look well over the top of it. Windbender HP shields come in two sizes (measured from the top of the windshield garnish gasket in the lowest position), 15" HP for riders over about 5' 11" and 11" HPS for riders shorter then about 5' 11". Your line-of-sight should be no LESS than 4” over the top of these shields in their lowest position and can be as much as 6” to 8” above depending on road speed. Our 15" HP (High Performance) shields are available in clear or light bronze tint.
For this windshield to work as well for the co-rider as the rider, they have to be somewhat matched. For example, if the rider is very short in the body, and the co-rider is very tall through the body, along with the added height in the passenger seat, it may place them high enough in the wind stream that they will get some wind in their face. Even though the buffeting will be reduced, the Windbender ST may be a better choice since it can be raised higher for the passenger and doesn't have the distortion of the HP recurve to look through.

If your measurement is close to the low mark of the Windbender-HP and you’re unsure, we recommend moving to the Windbender-HP-S. This shorter windshield has quite a bit of adjustment up and will actually overlap the lower area covered by the Windbender-HP. The set up eventually will be fine tuned by you the rider, remember, this windshield is designed to be looked over, not through. The bigger problem would be not getting the windshield down low enough. There is about eight inches of adjustment available to raise it.
