Definitely a must buy. I love the look of this windshield. Thanks for sharing Beth!!
My pleasure MaMa!
Great review. Been thinking I wanted a larger one as my hubby's Ryker has a really big one and I like it...time to do an upgrade for my Ryker. Thank you Beth...you always do such awesome reviews!
Thanks Kristen! I love your comments!
Perfect timing; I will be picking up my new Ryker Rally in a few days and was going back and forth on which windshield to get. The large one it is. Thanks, Beth!!!
Congratulations! Welcome to the family!!
you deserve a million subs …learned so much from keep them coming
I appreciate that! I love that...spread the word! Thank you so much.
Excellent video, I was curious about the size difference myself. The comparisons that you did couldn't be better, Thanks.
My absolute pleasure!
What a GREAT video !!
10/10.

WELL Done Beth.
Thank You.
Well thank you very much Terry! I really appreciate you watching. Ride safe!
Love it! Looks like it makes a big difference!
It does! Especially at cutting down wind noise.
forever fixin up baby,nice, thanks for show.
My absolute pleasure!
Great video. You will your new windshield. That my first windshield I just purchased. 👍🏾🤟🏾
Awesome let me know what you think!
Great review. Thanks
Great video. I may have to order one for my Ryker!
Hi Kelvin! Thanks for watching!!!
Great video! I’ve been looking at that windshield. I already have the sport windshield. Tim bought the F4 Custom and loves it. So, it’s either $400 or $200.
Tough choices!!! Lol
Like the new size and shape. Definitely better than the original one for sure. Not sure I would like looking through the second inner shield. Prefer my MadStad adjustable/removable shield better but everyone has different needs and likes. Will upgrade to an F4 custom shield next year. Weather looks fantastic there. So jealous.
Hey Kevin! I think windshields, like every other accessory for the bike, are completely a personal preference. I like the F4 very much too.
Excellent review of the new Adventure windshield and comparison to the smaller Sport version. I wonder if any vendors at Bike Week stocked either aftermarket or OEM Ryker/Spyder accessories like windshields. A tip for opening a shipping box without damaging the contents. Open the ends first, lift up one end then cut down the middle.
Great tip John! As far as bike week Can-Am’s were definitely in the minority. I think I only saw 10 Spyders and two Ryker ‘s.
Good video. I chose the F4 Customs windshield because it’s made of Polycarbonate and is very damage resistant. The adventure windshield was on back order, but it is not adjustable. Yours looks cool. Enjoy.
Hi Scott. Thee F4 windshield is an awesome choice. Yes the adventure windshield is adjustable up and down. Ride safe!
@@RykerRydes I missed typed. The F4 is not adjustable. 🤦🤦
I really don’t like the look of windshields, but they do serve a purpose, especially on the highway. I think I’ll stick with the smaller. G Good review, love your vids.
Thanks so much for watching!!
Great video Beth...
Thanks Bill!
Nice job lady!! If I can get my 4runner stable I'll br looking into this for Leilani!
Awesome!
Just ordered mine
Let me know what you think.
Been curious about this windshield from way back when they hinted bout it. I think I will purchase for when I do the long hauls. Was thinking of the Madstad, but this is cheaper and I could switch out the two. And being 6'2, this will reach over my head I hope, as the sport doesn't.
This should be perfect for you. Not sure how it fits with someone 6'2"? You may want to go to a dealership and try it out first?
Winter summer windshields😎👍🏻✨
Yes! Lol
Looks good. I haven't been doing much highway riding so I'm on the fence about getting a windshield. But if I do, it needs to be a quick removable one.
I'm not sure how fast you want to be able to switch it out but it went on in less than 10 min at the dealership.
The windshield comes off with just four bolts, it is pretty easy. Although, it is not a quick release. I just leave mine on all the time because I’m a little lazy! LOL
Thanx 🙂
Cool, i saw KIngjoffyjoe I believe is his name he got one too, This is huge, I do like that these do not have any black lines for the trim on them. Very cool design with the deflector. Nice video
Thank you Giovanna!
Great video, thanks, quick question: where did you get the explorer lights?
Thanks so much. Here’s the video on those:

Hello again! I have a sway bar question. Some say they changed the sway bar to the RojoRon sway bar to help with wind sway on interstate riding. Do you recommend this or do you have another helpful idea? I'm on the 2021 ryker 600 ace. Thanks so much! PS l got the dealership to throw in this adventure windshield l love mine! Thanks in advance for your expertise.
Hi Kelly! As far as the sway bar is concerned, yes it helps a lot, but there is no perfect fix to highway riding instability. Keep in mind you’re on a bike with no doors or windows, yes you are going to get tossed around a little bit. If it is really bad, you might want to make sure and get a laser alignment. I’ve heard that helps a lot.
Thx for the vid. I bought the sport model yesterday before watching this. I don't know if I want the bigger model for my wife or not.
The bigger one is better at wind buffering. Great for highway riding.
Windshields can be a pain...Some cause worse head buffering, than none at all. If it's to tall it gets in your field of vision...for sure an adjustable one is a must. Good job
💯 right. Thanks for watching Rick.
Good job
A vent in a windscreen creates what is referred to as the Madstad effect (see explanation at Madstad.com). The vent allows a small amount of air behind the windscreen to offset some of the negative pressure and reduce buffeting.
Well said, thank you!
very helpful
Thank you.
Nice!!!
Good vid
Thank youTria!
Thinking of getting my first Ryker soon... Thanks for all the tips.. Still not sure which to get ,the rally or the sport.
The 2022 Rally seat is amazing!!! That might push you to buy the Rally. 🤔
@@RykerRydes
Although a basic Ryker and a custom seat would be great as well...could always get the tool to adjust the height
Nice video as always. It would be nice to hear your opinion after you've ridden with it longer. Going from memory just the windscreen is $200 (that may not be correct) and I'm curious if you think it was worth the money. Thanks.
I will ride with it on and then comment again in a couple of weeks to see how it does! All windscreens are around the $200+ price point. Totally worth it if you ride a lot on the highway. Reduces fatigue.
Hi Beth, When you were riding and had to put the windshield in the up position, did it interfere with you line of sight like you said it did in the driveway?
Ugh, unfortunately that video was done a long time ago. Windshields are such a personal preference. I like them on the smaller side.
Have you tried mounting the RiderScan mirror on the adventure windshield? Does it work? I'm thinking it would be tricky or not possible due to the curvature of the inside piece.
I have not tried putting it bak on yet. I will try though.
I like that
How do I get the exhaust you got
How bad is the vibration compared to the Sport when at speed? The dealer near me had both in stock, but steered me towards the smaller as they say the larger one vibrates and moves a lot.
I totally disagree. The larger one is much better at highway speeds!!
Thank You! I contacted BRP by email more than a month ago to request compatibility with existing Sport bracket and they could not tell me. They asked me to contact my dealer. No answer from them as well.
Can you provide the measurements of both for the height and width so I can compare them? It is bigger but not sure by how much. 150%???
Again, even their site do not provide any information.
Is the hole make a real difference?
Yes the existing bracket works I purchased only the adventure shield.
Glad I could help! Sorry for the delay on the measurements. The larger Adventure windshield is 15"X19" and the smaller Sport is 12"X15" These are the widest points on the windshields.
nice video. where did you find the decal stripes?
Thanks. It’s a wrap from Tint Word.
so you went to bike week,cool.
Yes, my first time. It definitely was an experience! LOL
Did you keep your RiderScan to go back on the new windshield?
Yes, but I haven't put it on yet! Hope it fits.
A windshield with a secondary windshield. Is it a bifocal lens for giants?
Lol!! It’s actually pretty cool, it takes all the pressure off of that first windshield,
On the vid it seemed like there was distortion in the view? Good vid shopping for one
Hmm I don’t think so. But keep in mind will be looking over the windshield while riding.
@@RykerRydes new rider found ur channel.. shopping for windshield. I'm 5'7. Would a 20inch be too big?
Adventure windshields fit with Canada Bluetooth stereo but you can't use adjusting bracket
Great news!! Thank you for letting us know
It looks a lot better on the ryker
I agree!
Would you mind sharing your height for reference? I'm 5'2" deciding between both windshields.
Sure. I am 5’3”. When the windshield is in the lowest position I am able to see over it no problem.
@@RykerRydes thanks!
Ahoj, taky už mám tento větší Adventure Windshield :-)
Tohle je úžasné. Líbí se mi i ten větší. Díky za sledování až z češtiny!
@@RykerRydes Thank you
Is the sport windshield any good for highway riding I’m 5/8?
Yes and no. The sport windshield definitely helps on the highway. I used it for over a year and it was noticeably better than not having any windshield. That being said it’s not as good as a bigger windshield, that will block even more wind . It’s really a personal preference.
@@RykerRydes How about the new Adventure windshield
@@RykerRydes with adventure one , happenes that my view goes trough the windshield , it suppose have to go above the windshield? I am also 5,8
Wondering
if it would fit with the Bluetooth radio
I’ll let you know soon. They are sending me one once they are back in stock
@@RykerRydes cant wait for the video, hope to see it soon thank you
It will fit but can't use brp adjustable bracket
Beth,do you use ear plugs?
Sometimes. I tend to forget. Having the windshield in the highest position really took the pressure off my ears.
This windshield looks better sized for the Ryker, I always thought the Sport windshield was way to small.
💯 agree!
Ha! And I think the sport one is too large!
@@martisanders9016 One of the good things is options because you may not like what Beth or I like and that makes for different bikes and that is cool!
I’m a big of fan of this windshield I think it works great to throw wind over you
💯 agree!
👍🇦🇺
Which do you choose?
Definitely the bigger one!
Beth, Beth Beth, you are killing me, you purchase a product then you go purchase the same product but different type: ex: you have 2 different seat cushions, windshields, grips, & handlebars plus u changed ur muffler, horn, mirrors, cruiser, link and sway bars, added fog lights, driving lights, risen, key lock for frunk with heated shield, the Beth’s add-ons are endless!! Your poor car isn’t getting any attention! Hopefully by now you are spokesperson for can am UDBest!
OMG you are too funny. You are correct my car gets gas and that's it. It's funny, but I don't know anything about my car or how to work on it. No interest. lol. All my love, attention and money goes directly to by baby!
So I bought the adventure windshield. It was impossible for me to put on by myself. The design of the windshield is poor in my opinion. The two separate pieces don't attach so you have to hold them together, get the screw and nut in place and tighten them. Not something that one person can do. My brother helped me install it so hopefully the weather will hold and I'll be able to ride tomorrow.
I totally agree, it is a 2 person job. But worth it!
Look awkward big on the Ryker
It looks big on the highest setting but not so much on the lowest setting.
I’ve the F4 for sale. It didn’t work for me...😏
Can I ask why it didn’t work for you? I’m thinking of getting one. Maybe yours : )
@@gimme7x Hi mike, I bought it hoping wind would go over my head...I’ve long hair,braided when I ride of course and in Minnesota most of us do not wear helmets. My hair instantly was all in my face! I rode not a half mile and took that windshield off. With a helmet it would be great. But... NO not with me. A bald man or helmet is real good.🥴👍😉
The F4 also has a 2” recurve at the top to help wind go higher. It is a very nice windshield.
I don't think I would like the extra optical barrier
Where in the world did you get 150% bigger? Don't you realize how giant 150% bigger would be?
I agree it sounds weird! I actually got it from Can-Am.
@@RykerRydes doesn't surprise me, they mess up quite a bit. Suppose to be 50% bigger.
I love your channel but, that is the worst windshield I’ve ever seen. It’s not crazy cool it’s crazy ugly and the worst design ever. Be honest, do you really like it?
don't hold back let it out
@@The1saturn we will wait and see how long she uses that shield. I’ve owned a lot of bikes with shields.
I think windshields, like every other accessory to the bike, is completely a personal choice! I really do like it, and I will do an update review after I’ve ridden with it for a month! I had it on the highway yesterday and I was crazy impressed with how much better it felt on my ears. It literally took all the pressure off of my ears, that was a surprising difference for me that is invaluable.
All windshields are ugly! I don't have one and never will. Wind in the face is my choice. Ride and enjoy, also, no loud speakers.
I totally agree with the lough speakers! Hey Bill. As far as the windshield, I do mostly highway riding, and it really saves me on fatigue. It’s just a personal choice. Thank you, as always, for your comments
