I fitted my new Givi screen today. Also my Oxford rainseal mitts. I rode about 12 miles today around the neighborhood. Givi screen squeaks alot over bumps, but it really directs the wind up and around me.

The Oxford mitts are real nice too. It is kind of hard to turn on the turn signals with my heavy gloves on, but not too bad. It's about 32°F today.

Where did you order that windshield from? I've never seen one like that. The GIVI I have is a POS! Buffeting is terrible and loud. Someone needs to come out with a windshield that is adjustable for different conditions and riding. You read reports about someone ordering a windshield and installing it and doing a road test and report. Rather than tell everyone that was the worst investment they ever made on an expensive farkle! Instead they tell everyone that it did improve the ride. So you go out and purchase one and you test it out. You then realize you bought genuine 'snake oil'! If I had a windshield that did not ruin the experience of the ride, I would be more likely to take a monumental trip on my PCX. Right now the machine would make it anywhere. I don't think I would. The PCX is such a capable machine for any riding. Tires are economical, fuel mileage amazing, quiet and easy to maintain.

Now that I've ranted and got off course on windshields I have to say I need a quiet one!

Hi Scott, I purchased the 323dt from Revzilla. Their website shows it out of stock, but I called and they actually had stock in one of their warehouses. I got the install kit as well, same story. I think they might have a few more, you will have to call them to find out.

It is a great windshield. Wind noise is pretty much non-existent. It does squeak a little over bumps. The shield is a little wide where it mounts and the rubber
molding on the bodies plastic trim under the shield causes this. It's kind of annoying to me, but being blocked from the wind is awesome.

I have the Honda oem tall shield too. That one will be used in the summer. 8)

Hope this helps.

I have the 323 installed on both of our bikes. It is great. What you may be hearing is the trim rubbing against the windshield itself. My trim pops loose on one side now because of how tight it fits. When I get the time I will have to work on the problem. I am not the only one who has had this problem with them in that way. It isn't a big deal. I have taped down the side that comes loose with some clear packing tape, temporarily. This little inconvenience isn't much of a problem compared to the comfort the windshield gives me when I am riding.

Mel, yes I know it's the trim. As I said it's the rubber on that trim making the noise.
