Magic Eraser.  Don't think it will scratch, but try a small area near the bottom to be sure.

My FIL taught me a trick a few decades ago. Saturate a bath towel with water and lay it over the windshield. Leave it alone for 15-20 minutes and it will do all the work for you. Almost no elbow grease needed, and no scratches. Still do it occasionally.

Sound like a cheap and effective approach OC and one I have used myself in the past.  I guess my issue is impatience, so I'm going to have to learn to swaddle the screen then wash the rest of the scooter before I return to the screen as the last job?!

I bought an $80 "universal" windshield from Amazon that twerks great.
Like 150i ABS
