harley factory windshield is coated. If you are talking about the regular rain x bottle that has been around for years then the answer is yes. The rain x will cloud the windshield..It harms the coating.

Unless something has changed in the last couple of months, RainX always used to have a warning on it NOT to use it on plastic/polycarbonate/lexan, because it will cause fogging.
When in doubt...read the instructions. Wait, we' re Harley riders...we don't need no STINKIN INSTRUCTIONS!!!!

Question: Is there any other products that would be better as a water repellant?

I had a very bad experience with Rain-X on a car windshield years ago. Never will use their product again.
Pledge or the Honda polish (whatever they are calling it now) should work.
