RE: rain x
RainX will destroy most m/c windshields. Sorry - but the "RUB" comment was WAY over the top IMO. Why denigrate someone coming here for help? Someone in need can become a friend...or enemy - depends on how you treat 'em. Figger ah've already got 'nuff enemies!
If yer lookin' fer info on ways ta clean/polish a shield, try the Tulsa windshield website - LOTS of info there on how ta properly maintain 'em!

RE: rain x
I was afraid of that! The Rainx bottle said nothing to make me beleive that it wouldn't work.
Oh well it is too tall anyway. I'll have to get a new one as soon as I can work into the budjet in a month or two.
Thanks for the help!

Plexus is the best stuff I've ever seen for the windshield. I weta tee shirtin warm water and lay it across the windshield for 10 minutes. Then I use the tee shirt to lightly lift off the bugs and other crap. Once this is done, I use Plexus as a finishing touch.

The replacement windshields are not very expensive as long as you use aftermarket check j&p cycles website you also have a choice of several different sizes,but before completely giving up try the two step plexus.step one removes fine scratches step two polishes...good luck remember sooner or later we all pay the idiot tax....or you just aint trying....

Ok Rickoshay 45, dont just throw away your windshield, paint the inside of it black and cut it down. You now have a verycool smoked windshield.
Hell, someone would probably buy it from you if you did that.

RE: rain x
Nothing like having all your buds kick you when you are down...try calling Classic Motoring Accessories,LTD @ 1-800-628-7596 0r E-mail em at Classic1@tampabay.rr.com.They have some products that may help. I purchased some stuff that cleared up clouded plastic windows for my boat and also a product called PLEXUS in a spray can for routine cleaning and polishing that I used on the Boat windows and my Road King windshield that works much like rainex but is safe to use. Their products may let you salvage you windshield.....good luck.
