DescriptionThe whole story▼
Certified to ABE KBA 38188 CS2a and DOT 1312, the Puig Roadster windscreen is a rigorously homologated semi-fairing that blends genuine rider protection with the raw, stripped-back character the Sportster Forty-eight is known for. At 290 mm tall and 260 mm wide it delivers a meaningful deflection of wind and road debris without softening the motorcycle's rebellious silhouette.
Key Features
- Dual homologation — ABE KBA 38188 CS2a and DOT 1312 — confirming compliance with both German TÜV quality standards and US safety requirements, so fitment is road-legal in the covered markets.
- High-impact acrylic construction resists shocks and impacts in everyday riding conditions, keeping the screen intact where lesser materials crack or craze.
- UV-resistant acrylic formula guards against solar degradation, preserving optical clarity and colour over years of outdoor use.
- Rounded profile edges are finished for improved safety — no sharp corners to snag hands or gear during fitment or in a low-speed incident.
- Aerodynamically profiled shape improves airflow and stability at speed, reducing fatigue on longer runs.
- Two attachment points with two interchangeable fixing types — fork-bar mounting or headlight-screw mounting — give a secure, rattle-free fit across the XL1200XS without modification.
- Chrome steel fasteners complement the Forty-eight's classic custom aesthetic straight from the box.
Construction & Materials
The screen is moulded from high-impact-resistance methacrylate acrylic, a material chosen for its combination of optical clarity, structural rigidity and long-term UV stability. At 944 g the assembly is light enough not to affect steering geometry, while the steel and chrome hardware resists corrosion in wet-weather use. The rounded perimeter profile is not merely cosmetic — it meets Puig's internal safety criteria and contributes to the aerodynamic behaviour of the screen at motorway speeds.
