Nytro windshields

side deflectors

I know I read in an earlier post that some guys were having problems with the Zues fasteners attaching the lower part of the side deflectors. I thought someone said that Yamaha was going to start supplying longer ones, but I talked to my dealer today and she checked on it. From the sounds of it, they "plan" too, but I think the kits coming now use the short (stock) length one.

So what is the consensus? Are the stock fasteners a PITA to use?

Thanks!
 
I put the high winshield and tinted side deflectors on my wifes Nytro. would recommend getting the metal holding clips to hold the dzus fastner. Then just tweek the metal receptical to make the fastner work like normal. its easy to pop the receptical off the panel use a vise or big pliers to give it abit of a bend. plus just so the side delector doesnt wear on the paint I cut a peice of 3M clear chaffe tape and placed it under where the deflector meets the hood at the receptical.

hope this helps.

Follow the above directions and you'll be good to go. Easy and cost effective.

The alternative is to spend $10 per longer Dzus bolt, which is ridiculous. I believe Port Yamaha posted the part number somewhere in a past thread. Try a search for the part # and give that number to your Dealer.
 
I bin useing the stock little chrome sheild all winter & last winter with heated jacket & bin nothing but hot...

Hope this helps if your worried about looks like i am.

Heated Jacket rocks....... :bling
 
Here's a pic of my mid height windshield. Not really the best if you're lookin for warmth but surprisingly it's not as cold as it looks. It's actually warmer than the shorter one on my wife's IQ and on my brothers Switchback! I really like the white, that was my purpose for changing it! Not a big fan of the look of the stock windshield.

My avatar pic is the high I with smoked lower to hide the windshield bag and smoked deflectors. I don't think it looks bad but not a Ducati beast look for sure but at 70mph I don't care! The bag appears to fill it up anyways and adds to my storage capacity and never felt cold. This winter will really test things...
 
Close up of my Yamaha "high" windshield with smoked lower and blue flames plus the smoked deflectors, I don't think it looks bad and once the windshield bag is put in it basically fills the smoked area so you would not want clear...

get the extra tall windshield and side deflectors, comfort before looks, unless you like being cold? Its not that hard to put your shorty back on in the early spring. Only complaint is the cheap plastic screws, I've broken countless ones while trailering. Have since upgraded to stainless steel, which do not cost much more than what yamaha charges for their cheap crappy plastic ones.
 
I just installed this used mid height windshield and new side deflectors. Next step is to mount my Ski-Doo mirrors to my white hand guards.
