Florida is the love bug capitol of the US. An easy way to remove bugs from the shield is use a large towel, get it wet, wring it out and micro wave it for two minutes. Drape the towel over the shield and let it set for five minutes. Then I use my hands and a little dish soap to wash off the debris and polish it up with the bottle of Novis that came in my HD cleaning bucket

Over the years I've bought a few dark windshields off e-bay that were very fragile,no protective coating and they marked up very easily.I found the product that has worked the best for me is Plexus.After every ride I usually give it a spray and the bugs slide right off with no scratching or clouding.
