I have a 2025 Rocket 3 GT. Can anyone tell me who makes the best windshield for wind protection but also looks good on the bike. I've looked at quite a few but none of them looked good on the bike.

I don't think that's achievable unless you're pretty short. I started with a Custom Motorcycle Windshields then bought one from Poland 24.5" HIGH TOURING WINDSCREEN TRIUMPH ROCKET 3 GT TALL WINDSHIELD FLIP UP SCREEN | eBay And now I have a custom oversize one from Cal Sci Triumph Rocket III Windshields I'm tall, so its a barn door. I think any big windshield looks crappy, but if you want highway touring comfort with your face shield up, its the only way to do it. These bikes don't have the aerodynamics of modern touring bikes. Even my Adv. bike has a flat across the front design that blocks some wind. The rocket is like a 70's bike. With a old school gas tank, that you might have put a windjammer, or plexi fairing on.....One thing I did that helped are these fork mounted wind deflectors I made. They keep wind from riding up your legs in the forward controls position. Again, they don't do anything for the looks of the bike. I'm about to head out to Maine for a few days, and this trip will be my first real test of all this wind management stuff. I have the first shield I bought for sale. For Sale - 7 Jurock 22" medium gray tint windshield for new gen. Rocket By the time it came I already had a 2 1/2" taller one on. It might work if you're under 6'.

Pretty much all the winshield options are going to take away from the bikes looks. I went with the mad stad winshield. Im pretty happy with it. Get the 24 inch one.

I implemented a simpler and cheaper solution on my GT. I made two brackets that raised the standard "flyscreen" to a more upright position like the Tigers all have, so that the screen is at the same angle as the forks. I made the brackets out of 2mm sheet aluminium so it was easy to work with, and painted the them to match the bike. Almost no-one ever notices they are there because they look like they came from the factory.

In reality though, the screen punches a big enough hole in the air so it goes around the rider, or over the head. I'm 6ft, and there is no buffeting up to 75-80mph,giving a nice quiet ride most of the time. I have a template I can share, produced in CAD (Cardboard Aided Design )

I also tried to keep air from blowing up under the sides and front of the shield. I bought a bag from Moto pockets. Classic Windshield Bag (Harley-Davidson) And made these pieces out of 1/4" abs plastic. put a little adhesive back weather stripping where it touches the inside of the windshield.

This just came. Paper towels for size. Craaazy man.

That ought to block some wind for sure.

well ,put the giant windshield on. I've been experimenting with angles for it, with different length supports.. I found out that even though I prefer to look over the shield like most people, I need to look through it at 80-90+ mph highway speeds to be able to have still air with my face shield open. But when I'm on smaller roads at 40-50-60 mph, I can look over it with pretty still air. Thing is having the shield high enough to look through on the highway sitting comfortably makes it hard to look over on back roads. So I'm making adjustable support struts. I got some carbon fiber tube and delrin rod. I needed to wrap the delrin rod a bit to get the proper fit. One wrap of electric tape, and two wraps of carbon vinyl. I'll finish it tomorrow and take some pics of the shield straight up, and raked back for looking over,

Yes, it's giant. But I'm tall and it needs to be functional and comfortable for long trips.
