National Cycle has manufactured motorcycle windshields in Illinois since 1937, using its own hardcoated Quantum polycarbonate. Windshield choice affects wind noise, buffeting and fatigue more than most riders expect, and National Cycle publishes real height and coverage data to get it right.
This National Cycle Switchblade windshield mount kit in chrome features a quick-release mechanism for V-twin motorcycles. It allows Indian Scout riders to swap windshields quickly or remove them entirely without the need for tools, offering ultimate convenience.
For Indian Scout riders who value flexibility and a clean look, this National Cycle Switchblade mount kit is a game-changer. Finished in brilliant chrome, it not only looks sharp but also provides the functionality to go from a full touring setup to a stripped-down cruiser in mere moments.
Whether you're gearing up for a long ride or just cruising around town, this mount kit lets you adapt your Indian Scout to the conditions. It's an essential upgrade for any rider who wants the option to run different windshield styles or simply remove their shield for a different aesthetic. Pair it with a National Cycle Switchblade 2-UP, Chopped, or Shorty windshield (sold separately) for a complete system.
Is a windshield included with this mount kit?
No, this product is the mounting kit only. You will need to purchase a compatible National Cycle Switchblade windshield (2UP, Chopped, or Shorty) separately.
Can I remove the windshield without using any tools?
Yes, the quick-release design of this mount kit allows you to swap or remove your windshield by hand, without the need for any tools.
Will this kit fit my specific Indian Motorcycle Scout model?
This kit is designed for Indian Scout, Scout Sixty, and Scout Bobber models. Always confirm specific fitment for your exact year and model using our Shop by Bike tool before ordering.

Fairly easy to install. Had a little issues getting the studs to line up with the holes in the cover plate. Probably added 10 minutes to the installation time. Held windshield in place for a week long trip around the Smokie Mountains in Teenesee.<br /><br />Very happy with installation
This was breeze to attach. Have not had any issues yet and cant see how I ever could. Great construction and material.
Very solid and stable. Holds windshield firmly in place.<br />Requires fair amount of force to add or remove windshield to bike but that’s a good feature. It lets you know you need not worry about it rattling or coming loose on the road.
Works perfect with the windshield
The mounts fit well, I was disappointed at the cost of them.
Easy to put together and mount. Went on without a hitch. Thought it was a tad expensive though.
