Had this last year on the cat zr9 and to be it's the best looking reasonable performing option available...with hand guards...New gloves and my cat semi rigid gauntlets for the bitter days if necessary...
I'm extremely disappointed in the shields offered..and the shields that come on the machines...seems like we're really having to work at finding ways to use these machines and spend money with yamaha...
Well said pretty sure I spent as much money on accessories at the cat (windshields tunnel protectors a few other odds and ends) and doo dealers (storage) than I did at my Yamaha dealer.

I would think we'd be able to have both looks and comfort on $15,000 + sleds. Can't believe the poor attention on accessories that the sidewinder has gotten. Both dealers and yamaha make good money on the accessories so both are missing out on profits here. Someone really dropped the ball.ride in northern maine,nb,or canada ,looks won't matter, function does ,or you''ll be a popsicle .

All the screws bolt the same as the Viper. Where the vipers wings fasten to the hood on the Sidewinder there isn't anywhere for the wings to fasten. I haven't rode mine to see if the wings will flap but when I pulled it on a trailer at 70 mph the windsheild didn't wobble down low just at the top.Whoes windshield is that one from,a viper,if so I was told it don't fit the sw correctly.

Yes, wanted it to match the flat black on the hood. Did it on my last sled with no issues for 3 years. If I scratch it, I'll take it off and rattle can spray it again.it looks like you painted the exterior of the shield??
