A cold morning ride with no windshield is a lesson you only need once. But a full windshield on a hot afternoon can feel like riding inside a greenhouse. A flip windshield lets you choose.
SuperATV’s Arctic Cat Wildcat Flip Windshield, available at Wild Boar ATV Parts, is designed for year-round riding on the Arctic Cat Wildcat. It can be closed, vented or fully open.
Three positions
Closed, it blocks wind, rain, bugs and roost from the machine in front of you. Vented, it lets some air through to cut fog and heat while still knocking down most of the wind. Fully open, it gets out of the way for summer riding. The included gas struts help support the windshield as you move it between positions.
That flexibility is the real value. Instead of owning two windshields or pulling one off every spring, you leave this one on the Wildcat all year and just change its position to suit the weather that day.
Material and coating
The windshield is made from 1/4 inch polycarbonate. SuperATV rates that material as 250 times stronger than glass and 25 times stronger than acrylic. It also uses SuperATV’s XR Optic Hard Coating, which is what makes it scratch resistant. That matters on a windshield, because a few seasons of dust and wiping can leave an uncoated windshield hazy and hard to see through.
Included in the box:
- 1/4 inch polycarbonate flip windshield
- Foam gasket and bulb seal
- Clamps
- Gas struts
The windshield comes preassembled, which makes installation simpler. It is shaped to fit the contours of the Wildcat’s cage and hood, and the gasket and bulb seal help close up gaps where wind and water would otherwise sneak in.
Care tips
Rinse dust and mud off with plenty of water before you wipe the windshield. Dragging a dry rag across dirt is the fastest way to scratch any windshield, coated or not. Use a soft cloth and a cleaner made for polycarbonate.
Fitment
This windshield is listed for the Arctic Cat Wildcat. Arctic Cat built several Wildcat models and cage designs, so confirm your year and model before ordering. If you have any questions, call Wild Boar ATV Parts at 850-912-4350 and we will help check fit.
