New Puig windscreen available
« 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/

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.

I finally got my slipstreamer installed on my GTI 300.  I had ordered it from JCwhitney, and received it in a short time.
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.

Please give us an update with lots of pics when you get your windshield. I'm thinking about getting one myself.

Good luck and rides safe, mscmkr

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.

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!

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.

A close up photo so you can see the way Puig cuts the bottom to fit.

Motovation tells me that the Puig windscreen are not available, but should be in stock in about 3 months.
