After seeing another photo of a bike with a similar aftermarket windscreen I decided to pull the trigger and bought one off Monster Parts. After the installation and a little riding, I noticed that there is a significant amount of glare coming up from the front head light. At night this is even more distracting. I don't think that I installed this wrong, took off stock windscreen and put on the instrument panel cover, does anyone have a solution to this?

I am not sure if there is some kind of headlamp fairing/cover for the M796 that would prevent this issue.

I noticed the same thing when I tried a Barracuda windscreen, though I never installed the instrument cover, which might have helped. Sounds like you will need to get creative on this one.

Thanks, glad it wasn't only me. I'm going to need to figure this out. Love the windscreen, and I can definitely still ride with the glare, just a little odd.
