Good afternoon everyone! I've been surfing the web, looking for athe best price on this windshield. What I've come up with is Powersport superstore.com seems to have the best price on this item. I think it was this forum that had someone who bought one from this company and the after-purchase advise and support wasn't there. Does anyone have any better price? Thanks in advance for your input. Couldn't get anything posted on scootdawg. Think this is going to be my "go to forum" from now on. Oh, ya, BTW it's going on a 2008 Zhenjiang Summit Hauw, model HY150T-5, 150cc. My top speed has been around 60 to 62mph but I normally run at 55mph. Wife has clocked me at that speed and the auto shows 54mph, so my chinometer is very close.

Wow, if you're popping 60 MPH on that 150 you're doing great. I couldn't find that windshield on that site so I don't know what the price is. Is it better than this one at Scrappy's? Scrappy will stand behind his stuff as all of our banner vendors will. That's why we have them up there at the top of the site. I wouldn't worry about tech support, those windshields are pretty easy to install. The warranty is another thing. I've never purchased from that site so I'm not sure how they are on that. I thought the site looked pretty seedy though and they were selling plows. Rich

I wound up buying a windshield from the dealer that I bought my scoot from. It was a universal no brand. I just couldn't get it to fit, at all! Tried several configurations and nothing worked. Took it back to them and they gave me a full refund. I explained that I initially wanted a "Slipstreamer scoot 66". Ryan immediately got on his computer and went to one of his vendors and ordered on for me. Cost me something like $87.00 plus tax (7% here in Indiana) and shipping. Thursday of this week he called. My wife answered the phone and he told her to tell me that Santa Clause was on the phone for me. Yepper, the windshield had come in! I drove right down there (41 miles one way) and picked it up. Spent about an hour in the garage fiddling with it after dinner. Went out to the garage yesterday about noon and had it on and adjusted in about another two hours or so, which included the painting and drying time for the spacer, which appeared to be brass and looked like crap under the mirrors. That spacer is now a gloss black and just blends in with the rest of the hardware for the shield. I gotta say, Sprocket! You were dead on about a quality shield. Thanks. Once I had it on and tweeked to my personal needs I took it for a spin. Minimal vibration! It seems as solid, or maybe more so than the fairing shield that was on my Suzuki gs 1100. I love it!

Now that my slipstreamer is installed and since it's a bit cool for me to ride, I think it's time to see what I can do about those CLATTERING rockers! I don't mind a bit of a ticking sound from the rocker arms, but these sound like someone is inside there with a couple of ball-peen hammers knocking the fire out of everything! Time to do something about that!

I am thinking about this windshield for both of our Roketa 150's

Universal scooter windshield

Just in time for inclement weather. Universal scooter windshield fits just about any scoot by mounting on the mirror tabs. Strong and easy installation. Quality clear plastic shield is easy to clean and maintain. You won't find a price this low even on Ebay! $29.95 complete with shield and all mounting hardware.

Anybody ever use a heated vest?

a friend of mine has a heated jumpsuit/coveralls.

I wondered if the charging system would support that much load, but if your freind has a heated jumpsuit it must draw more current than a vest.
