National Cycle Vstream 9" Dark Smoke Windscreen - Harley Road Glide
About National Cycle
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.
The National Cycle Vstream windscreen in 9" Dark Smoke is engineered with a patented V-shaped design to actively redirect wind turbulence away from the rider and passenger. This shorter, darker screen offers a performance-oriented look while still delivering tangible comfort benefits. Constructed from Quantum hard-coated polycarbonate, it ensures optical clarity and superior abrasion resistance.
Why riders pick this
- Patented V-shape deflects wind vortex for less turbulence
- Quantum hard-coated polycarbonate resists scratches
- Dark Smoke tint for an aggressive, custom aesthetic
- Enhances rider comfort by reducing wind noise
- Designed for direct replacement installation
For Road Glide riders who prefer a lower-profile screen without sacrificing comfort, the National Cycle Vstream 9" Dark Smoke windscreen is an ideal choice. Its patented V-shape design is more than just aesthetics; it's engineered to push the wind vortex away from your head, resulting in significantly reduced wind noise and buffeting. This allows for a more focused and enjoyable ride, especially when you're pushing the pace.
