I need to take a pic of it, I got my stock short windshield off my old wrecked Uly on a Strada adjustable screen. It started cracking on me, is there a way to fix it? The screen is heavily damaged from the wreck, but has sentimental value. The crack started by the upper right mounting hole, and is about 4" long and heading down and left.

carefully drill a tiny hole at the end of the crack. It will stop there.

I got an extra windshield with my Uly that has 2 cracks in it. I checked around and found a product called Plastifix by Urethane
Supply Co. I ordered the Plastifix and it is on its way. As soon as I try it out I will let you know the results.

I believe it has something to do with this...





The helmet didn't fare much better, IIRC.

I wonder what the windshield looks like after Froggy's latest wreck?
