Windshield

· G

Second mandatory add-on for me was a windshield. Assuming this is a China-made bike, the first logical step – search AliExpress and Temu. After several attempts AliExpress was too pricey and the Temu offer was poor, so back to traditional universal brand shields.

Final round: GIVI Airstar A601 vs A604 – ordered from web, arrived, both tested on the bike – final choice A604. Better-shaped bottom for the SRV 700 oval light, better look, a bit higher top.

Tested:

  • for 168cm rider a very good choice, however 175-180cm riders reported a light flow hitting top of the helmet,
  • light vibrations (due to the attachnment system) when in 90-100 and over 120 km/h, overal stable.

Note: Adjusting the handlebars changes the angle of the windshield and, consequently, the airflow characteristics.
