Puig Raptor Windscreen for Kawasaki W 800 Special Edition (2015–2016)

The Puig Raptor windscreen brings a considered blend of classic motorcycle aesthetics and modern engineering to the Kawasaki W 800 Special Edition. Shaped around a rounded headlight profile that suits the W 800's retro identity, this screen is as much a styling statement as it is a functional upgrade — offered in a carefully curated palette of finishes to complement the Special Edition's distinctive look.

Key Features

• Crafted from high-resistance thermoplastic polymer for outstanding impact resilience without adding unnecessary mass
• Rounded profile finish enhances the classic silhouette of the W 800 while improving rider safety at the screen's edges
• Aerodynamic form reduces wind buffeting and improves stability at road speeds
• UV-resistant material guards against solar degradation, preserving optical clarity and finish quality over time
• Certified to ABE KBA 38188 CS3 and DOT 1312 homologation standards, as well as German TÜV quality requirements
• Available in multiple finishes — including red, blue, black, transparent, smoked and dark smoked — to suit individual style preferences

Design Heritage and Finish Quality

Puig has long understood that a windscreen on a heritage-styled machine like the W 800 must earn its place visually before anything else. The Raptor's rounded profile is a deliberate design choice: it echoes the organic curves of classic café-racer and roadster fairings rather than imposing a modern sportsbike aesthetic. The result is a screen that feels as though it belongs to the motorcycle rather than being added to it.

The range of available finishes reflects Puig's commitment to personalisation. Whether you favour the understated elegance of dark smoked or the boldness of a colour-matched tint, the Raptor provides a degree of character that stock handlebars and a bare headlight shell simply cannot offer.

Performance and Practicality

Beyond its heritage credentials, the Raptor delivers measurable riding benefits. The aerodynamic profile channels airflow away from the rider's chest and helmet, reducing fatigue on longer runs. The thermoplastic polymer construction — weighing just 516 g — adds negligible mass while offering robust resistance to road debris and incidental impacts. UV resistance ensures the screen retains its colour and clarity through seasons of sunlight exposure.

Installation is straightforward and can typically be completed within a couple of minutes using the included visual instruction booklet. Where specific mounting requirements arise, optional adapter kits are available for select models. Please consult the ABE documentation carefully to confirm suitability for your specific W 800 Special Edition before fitting.
