Just finished installing my +2" w/vent hole (vent not here yet) & it looks great. The directions are perfect. I am very happy & very suprised that I could install this by myself. I have not been to the Honda Dealer to install any of these products bought from WingStuff yet. That says a lot for these reviews & suggestions. I put a lot of trust in these personal reviews/suggestions. Thank you Toddicus, BMan, & Red Rider. |

Several weeks ago, I got a phone call from Don Frank, the owner of F4 Concepts. I was pleasantly surprised. He was very concerned about the issues I noted on my last review. NOT about the review itself, but about the performance of the windscreen. I told him about the red/blue glare from the front of the windshield, and the problems I had cleaning it. There was no lecture on care. From minute one he gave me credit for knowing how to clean the unit properly. Instead, after listening to me (and NO lecture) He immediately decided to replace the windscreen, no further questions asked, and within 5 days, I had a new one on my doorstep, with PREPAID return of the old one! I am VERY impressed. Many manufacturers would have had me jump hoops trying to `fix' it. The new windscreen does have a very FAINT blue/red tint from the front when in the sun. But nothing anywhere as pronounced as my original. The new windscreen is frictionless unlike the one replaced. And, the new one included the felt strip to replace the stock teflon strip that runs across the dash. Muy Bueno! My personal belief is the adhesive from the protective covering on my original may left a residue that accentuated the blue/red filing, and also held any type of cleaner I tried to use. It happens. Again, there is a reason I order from Wingstuff. Rick guarantees you will be satisfied. And I thank you Don, for being 5 star user friendly, and not requiring I send the original back before sending me the replacement. Again, I am impressed! Now, if it just repels SNOW....lol.... |

One of the very first necessities my wife and I decided on when we bought our 2006 Goldwing was a taller, clearer, and more scratch resistant windshield. The stock Honda windshield just wasn't cutting the wind buffeting and was much more susceptible to rock pits and hazing due to its design. So, we perused the Goldwing boards and gathered opinions and information from a wide variety of sources and riders. We felt that if we were going to spend a large chunk of our hard earned dollars to replace brand new equipment on our Wing, it had better be worth the money. After much research, we decided F4 Custom +4 was the best choice for a variety of reasons. Foremost was the construction which utilizes a special Lexan polycarbonate material giving a super clear, scratch and chemical resistant, water slick surface. We were able to purchase the F4 in a +4 height which was important to us as, at 6'5" and 6'0" tall, the buffeting was uncomfortable at highway speeds. Once installed, the F4 Custom was all we'd hoped for providing much more wind, rain, and bug shielding as well as being very easy to keep clean. Everyone we meet asks about our F4 and is amazed at how well it looks, fits, and sheds bug strikes. A bonus of course, is that it's made right here in the U.S.A. by the Frank family. Ordering was friendly, shipping was fast, and packing was first rate. |

The windshield does keep more wind off me and my wife, but that's about the only thing I like about this product. Whoever did the scratch resistant coating on this polycarbonate should be either fired or shot. I'm in the plastics industry and I've never seen a coating so badly done. The windshield looks as if it has a misting of dust all over it. I would reccomend buying something else. |

Okay, now that I have had the windscreen for 5 weeks, I need to revamp my review. From day one, I've have a blotchy blue and red rainbow across the whole windshield. It isn't much visible from the rider's side, and I thought it might come off, but it doesn't. I have used Novus, Plexus, just soapy water, Honda cleaner, and yes, even Pledge on it, and each one leaves a nasty opaque smear across the windscreen (seen when the sun is in your face) no matter how much I buff it out with a clean cloth. I've had to stop several times to `breathe' on the w/s and try to clean it off. What DOES work is an ammonia free cleaner I got from a glass shop, but it reduces the slick feeling of the windscreen, and more bugs stick. I didn't have the same issue with the stock windshield. Honda cleaner or Plexis worked nice and CLEAN on the road, so I wonder if it's the added no-scratch layer that does all this. What I am impressed with, is no matter how much buffing I do, no scratches. And not having the black band on the lower half does give me more visibilty to what's right in front of me. It just doesn't seem to even out the cost or the irritation of having to go to great lengths to make the damn thing see-through. I'm glad I didn't chuck my OEM windscreen though. If I get pissed off enough, I'll put that back on. A few minor scratches are an even trade off to ease of visibility. In 20/20 hindsight, I might have passed on this until the price came down. A lot. |

Great windshield, ordered mine without the vent hole and am amazed at how much wind it knocks off of me and passenger. easy to wipe clean, fixed most of the wind noise problem with intercom helmets. easy to install. everyone should have one. |

I had just recently bought bought a new windscreen from Honda. Within TEN MILES, a road rock hit it and left an inch long gouge right in the sight of vision. Of course Honda would not replace it. Novus scratch remover #2 (Honda dealer recommended) made it worse. Rick let me know about this windscreen. So far, I have had two rocks whack me and...NOTHING!I use the Novus cleaner/polish on it, and not only does it clean sweet/easy, it makes it slicker than caca through a goose! Maybe its they way I mounted it, but on my bike, this screen seems to sit up a bit straighter. Not only giving me more GPS/vent clearance, but less buffeting. As time passes, and this technology becomes more common, the prices may drop, but right now, it was worth every penny to me. AND, the absence of the black tint band on the bottom gives greater visibility at night to what's right n front of you. |

I recently had a F4 +4 installed at the Davis Rally. The reason being that my wife was getting a lot of wind from our Tulsa Tall. She really likes the F4 better than the Tulsa, and that’s what matters. If I was riding one up, I would stay with the Tulsa as it does a better job for the driver. |

What a difference this windshield makes, yes, it does cost more, but in my opinion it is worth it. No more plastic polish for the windshield and it is much clearer than other types. As for deflecton of bugs, I hit a big old bug the other day, that would of broke my old windshield, but it didn't even scrathch this beauty. This windshield is worth the extra money!!! |
