Touratech Windscreens: More Comfort, Great Looks

Touratech’s windshields, manufactured in-house, offer better protection from the elements and boost the aerodynamics of a wide range of adventure bikes.
They are available in different heights to suit the size of the rider and the intended use.

For many people, it’s the rush of the wind whistling by that makes motorcycling so enjoyable. But it saps a lot of energy on long trips.

This is why touring and adventure bikes come fitted with shields and windscreens as standard. However, there is no getting around the fact that a standard windshield represents a compromise in a one-size-fits-all solution. It might do the job – but then again, maybe not.

Depending on the size of the rider, a lower or higher screen might help. Touratech offers replacement screens for a wide range of motorcycle models – and many are available in different heights.

This isn’t an attempt to reproduce the original screens, but – in true Touratech tradition – to create original designs.

Form and function of the upper edge of the windshields are based on Touratech’s rally racing experiences. The design is patented in the USA and provides optimum coverage and the cleanest airflow, while still keeping a relatively low profile and great looks.

The material used is a shock-resistant “Plexiglass”, which complies with general operating permit (ABE) standards.

The aerodynamic optimization guides the air streams over the head of the pilot without unnecessary turbulences. This means the shield is not only flicker-free, but also guarantees relaxing, non-tiring riding pleasure for the pilot and pillion.

Touratech windscreens are currently available for the following bikes: BMW F 800 GS and R 1200 GS / ADV, Ducati Multistrada, Honda NC 700/750 X, NC 700 / 750 S and Honda CRF 1000L Africa Twin, Yamaha MT-09 Tracer and KTM-models 1190/1050, 1290/1190/1050 und 690 Enduro / R.

Depending on the bike model, the Touratech windscreens are available in various sizes to suit the rider’s height and the particular use, and also in a transparent and a tinted version.
