Agreed. The deck bubbles up 6 or 8 inches before the windshield. I'm thinking of taking mine off. Less drag, kind of beat up, and it doesn't block the wind too well. Jdubs looks pretty slick without the windshield as well....

well I do like my windshield, it does help with the wind a good bit. As far as drag goes, I doubt that will make much of a difference in top speed.

I like it without the windshield. I think it gives a slicker look. I don't have much time behind the wheel but the ride I did go on it was fine without it. I have the windshield to put on ( a clear one) but I doubt I will.

I like the windshield too. Without it I would need some goggles. I set up the seat so the wind hits the top of my head, works fine. I ran one with and without, with is better IMO. But we bought it from the factory and it was around $800.. I expected something better for the price. The customer about crapped himself when he saw it in the box. It is nothing but a piece of Lexon and a few plastic pieces. We had make the bend, drill the plastic for screws, and butt the plastic pieces together. A poor piece of workmanship.

I agree Don. Looks like a after thought. That's why mine is staying off.

Snowboarding goggles. Anon's the best. The lens eliminates most glare and brings out the detail in the water. Its actually quite helpful!
Heres a newer version of mine. Look at the lense tech.
