In 2017 I purchased the Thundercat windshield. I feel it’s a nice medium size. I would think you could just order a 2017 thundercat windshield. Not sure if any other years are the same

2017 TCat was shorter than 2018 & newer. Might want to look at both. I think the 2018+ is about 2" higher at the center.
I just changed my stock 2017 to the taller 2018. As we all know, it's very windy once the speedo climbs over 120+!!

Arctic cat thundercat windshield works well.
 
Being a shorty lover on my SC/TC apex I was forced into a 151" by the Zx2 rear suspension only option at the time was that length. Now I don't see how any one can ride a <140" turbo sled. I only now realize how much I was spinning. My new SW BTX is a 153 with 1.75 and I'm a groomed trail rider. She hooks with no studs and books! I never even looked for the shorter tracks just for this reason. Handling is non issue FOR ME others will argue. I don't like arguing, I like riding and this 153 is a perfect match to the tuned power of a SW.

I have the Viper version of the same windshield in blue on my XTX; unfortunately it is NOT a warm windshield. It is an improvement over the stock windshields that offer virtually no protection, but when it comes to keeping the wind off you, all I can say is, "It is a nice looking windshield." I never tried the windshield that came stock on my Sidewinder LTX-DX because I wanted the optional windshield with the mirrors mounted on it. Either one of those windshields would add decent wind protection, but they won't win any awards for style.
 
I ordered the cat windshield tom put on his SRX..the stock windshield is completely worthless!!can wait to ride on a packed trail so i can feel the pull.and i see my apex is leaking oil from somewhere now?chaincase i'm guessing?My girlfriend hit a tree last year on that side.
 
could be loose clamp on oil tank or cracked oil tank on the apex rtx moose.
 
Yamaha medium sport windshield works great for cold & 1000 mile long weekends
