Windshields for Energica
« on: February 15, 2020, 05:01:14 AM »

Hi guys,

I'm in Kansas City. I need an Energica for a day or two to design brackets to mount a windshield. If you have a bike and are in the area, come see me and get a great deal on a nice windshield.

Cool! 

I imagine the Energica model that needs an aftermarket windshield the most is the SS9, and it should also be the easiest, since it has a traditional round headlight, and traditional 22mm aka 7/8 handlebars.

Hopefully you'll find someone here. 

Also, maybe try the Energica owners group on Facebook.

If you don't find an owner nearby, looks like your closest dealer is in Texas.

You might also be able to get a used SS9 for quite a discount, a lot of owners are switching to the new 19kWh Plus models, that are only just starting to ship.

By the way, I visited CalSci when they were in Sacramento.  Great people, made me a custom windshield to go with the big dustbin.

MadStad measured my SS9 and is working on a solution. Once I get the new Eva Ribelle, we will drop that off so they can fit it too.

Cool!  Do they expect to be mounting to front fork bolts, to the display shield, to the handlebars?  Is it expected to would on the other models too?

Did either Madstadt or CalSci end up making windscreens for the Eva Ribelle?

Ended up fitting the Puig Up&Down screen.

There are actually two distinct ways of mounting it.

1) Use the optional OEM Ribelle windscreen mounting posts and mount the Puig support bars on the handlebars (what I did)
2) Use the holes at the back of the dash for the lower mounting point on the Puig, and use the holes for the OEM Ribelle optional windscreen for the Puig upper support posts.

I'm still not sure what's better, and I haven't taken it for a ride yet. Apologize for the mess in the background, lots of construction going on around here:

Very few Energica dealers not on the coasts until recently, but they plan to double this year, hopefully you'll find someone sooner rather than later.

I just used the mounting posts on this aftermarket windshield:
 $33.76 Motorcycle Windshield Windscreen with Adjustable Bracket Wind Screen
 https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000131586120.html

I was going to drill 4 holes to mount it to the dash, but it doesn't even budge a hair at max speed.

Did you get to try it out yet under different speeds? How tall are you?
Would you recommend ordering the original windscreen with the Ribelle so you have the additional mounting points?
It looks good on the bike - link to Puig model?
