Adjusting the windshield on your Everyday Motorcycles Road Glide is essential for enhancing comfort and reducing wind fatigue during long rides. Proper windshield positioning helps deflect wind away from your body, minimizing noise and buffeting. Follow this simple step-by-step guide to get the perfect adjustment.
Step 1: Prepare Your Motorcycle
Park your Road Glide on a level surface and ensure it is stable using the kickstand or center stand. Turn off the engine and allow the bike to cool down if you have just finished riding.
Step 2: Locate the Adjustment Mechanism
The Everyday Motorcycles Road Glide features an adjustable windshield system. Typically, the adjustment knobs or levers are positioned near the mounting brackets on either side of the windshield. Consult your owner’s manual for the exact location if unsure.
Step 3: Adjust the Windshield Height
- Loosen the adjustment knobs or levers slightly to allow movement.
- Raise or lower the windshield to your preferred height. A good starting point is to align the top of the windshield with your helmet’s visor level.
- Tighten the knobs securely to lock the windshield in place.
Step 4: Test and Fine-tune
Take your motorcycle for a short ride to experience the wind protection at the new setting. If you feel excessive wind noise or turbulence, adjust the windshield again until you find the optimal position.
Regularly checking and adjusting your Road Glide’s windshield can improve riding comfort and safety, making every journey more enjoyable.
