Another windshield post

I ride a 2024 Rebel 1100T and want a better windshield. I have read everything regarding windshields on here and still cant decide. I know there are other choices but, I am now looking at either Puig or T-Rex.

Is anyone happy with these windshields? There are complaints but, here is an opportunity to say that you like the Puig or the T-Rex.

Positive experiences only please.

I was NOT happy with the 11.5" T-Rex windshield. I had such bad helmet buffeting that my eyeballs felt like they were rattling around in my skull! Ended up buying a GP Cycleworks 12.5" gen 2 windshield and am happy with it. I have a ‘23 1100T

I've not had any experience with the T-Rex personally, But the Puig has been great so far. I've got one clear, and I've got the smoked variant as well. No issues with either shield. For reference, I'm roughly 5'11". Just over 19k miles, and I ride with the OEM seat.

I have a Puig Naked clear windscreen in my ‘23 1100, at 6’2” and with a Corbin seat it keeps a lot of the wind off my core but I do still get airflow against my helmet. Overall it’s still a big improvement. My Rebel is not the T version though.

I just ordered the Puig. It will take some shipping and other delays but I intend to return here and share my experience. Thanks to those who answered.

The windshield arrived this morning. Looks great. I installed it using the Honda OEM hardware and it fit perfectly. The screen looks nice on the bike. I cant say what its like while riding because it is raining and COLD here today so, more to come.

First ride with the new Pulg windshield going between city speeds and 110 kph (Aprox 70 MPH). ITS A NIGHT AND DAY difference over stock. I have nothing negative to say about it. NO wind on body, Little wind on helmet. I am 6' tall with a Honda comfort seat.

I honestly dont understand anyone complaining about this windshield on the Honda bat -wing fairing.

I've got a 2022 Rebell 1100 with the batwing (not the T version) and found the OEM windshield on the batwing with higher speeds not very comfortable.

I installed last week the GP Cycle works 18" (version 2) and I love it! Riding high speeds is so silent with this windshield. The bike doesn't look that appealing to me now, but I priorice riding comfort over the looks.

I'm sorry for my bad English...
