Title: New Puig windscreen available
Post by: Commscooter on June 20, 2015, 05:47:26 PM: I just ordered a new windscreen Puig has available for the GT300. I had to order it from Motovation.com and it is not listed in their on-line catalog. I was told by a sales representative at Motovation to email a request to sales@motovationusa.com and they would create a special page in their shopping cart, and email me a link. They did just that.

The item number is 6848W. It is $114 with free shipping and you can see info about it at: http://www.puigusa.com/tuning-bikes/kymco-people-gt300i-2013/windscreen-ts/c171en/f1-r277-m4070/ (http://www.puigusa.com/tuning-bikes/kymco-people-gt300i-2013/windscreen-ts/c171en/f1-r277-m4070/)

I have not received it yet but it seems they only imported a limited stock, so you may not want to wait too long. I hope to update this post once it arrives and is installed.

The only problem was, I needed a 10mm adapter kit. JCW didn't have them but, they suggested Amazon. I ordered one from them and, about had a coronary when I received the next day.
Instalation was easy, took about an hour.
Will post pictures, but, being an old Florida rumdum, I can't figure out how to use my crayons online.
Will keep on trying.

Good luck and rides safe, mscmkr

Post by: Commscooter on June 27, 2015, 05:01:35 PM: Heeters Performance Center (Heeters.com) sent me an email indicating they have just two 6848W windscreens available for $124.22. You might want to email Dave at david.heeter@frontier.com for a link to order if interested.

Mine is due to arrive Monday, 6/29/15 and I will update with photos after it is installed.

Post by: bucray on June 28, 2015, 05:56:08 PM: Yes. But you have to order the 10mm adapter kit from Amazon. When I did this, I found I could have saved money ordering windshield from them. I live in the Tampa Bay area, where Amazon has a wharehouse, and received the part the next day. Unbelievable!

Post by: Commscooter on July 01, 2015, 02:24:54 AM: The windscreen arrived and I had it installed in about 15 minutes. It is about an inch shorter and about 2.375 inches narrower than the older Kymco option. I had hoped it would have a bit more rake to it as this is almost straight up. That said, it really cuts down the noise and turbulence, for a much calmer ride.
