[The 49 Front Fork Meter Visor is available]
XL1200X is the most popular model in SPORTSTER lineup, but the front fork diameter has been changed to 49 from the 2016 model year and the meter visor can no longer be installed.
The meter visor that doesn’t ruin the classic look of the SPORTSTER has become popular among XL1200X owners, and World Walk has received an increasing number of inquiries for a meter visor that can be installed on 2016 and later models.
After a long wait, World Walk finally has a meter visor for the 49 front forks of 2016 model.

[Fork mount system for easy removal and installation]
The fork clamp method is adopted for easy installation and removal.
Some riders prefer to install the windshield only on long touring trips, but the windshield is relatively easy to install and remove in about 15 minutes once you get used to it.
The brackets and mounting bolts are made of stainless steel for superior corrosion resistance.
This part is easy to be scratched when removing and installing, but it does not rust easily, so it can be used for a long time.

[The windshiled is fixed with aluminum collars and a set of stainless steel bolts and nuts]
Stainless steel cap bolts and nuts are used to fasten the windshield body to the bracket.
It also comes with collars that allow you to widen the seat surface without the protrusion of bolts.
The bolts are made of lightweight, corrosion-resistant aluminum and finished with silver anodized aluminum for dress-up.

[The color of the windshield is clear and smoke, and the shape is available in long and short]
The windshield is available in clear or smoke.
The height of the installation position is not so high that it interferes with the view of both short and smoke, but the visibility is outstanding because it is made of acrylic.
Smoke gives a sharp impression to the body.
Available in two sizes, short and long.
If you don’t want to wear too big wind shield, why don’t you use short windshield?

[Regarding compatible models]
World Walk has made the bracket for XL1200X from 2016 onwards, but it may be possible to fit some of the 49 forks on some of DYNA models and the New SOFTAIL series integrated with DYNA.
World Walk will update the information of installation to the vehicle body as needed.

[Impressions of the experience!]
The effect of the windshield cannot be expressed in numbers.
World Walk has a staff member who commutes to work by bike, so World Walk ask him to test the bike as well.
It is not necessarily that everyone feels the same effect because the feeling varies from person to person, but it will be a reference.

[Staff’s 49 Meter Visor for Forks Exclusive Experience Report]
Both short and long are used.
When the windshield is mounted on the FORTY EIGHT Special, the headlight is higher than the seating position, and the windshield is mounted on the headlight.
Since no one rides while looking at the feet, some people don’t have to worry about the visibility even with the long smoke, but if you are worried about it, you might want to get the clear one.
The smoke isn’t particularly thick, but it’s a bit like looking through sunglasses.

The degree of reduction of wind contact to the body also differs slightly depending on the vehicle model.
The stock seat of the FORTY EIGHT Special is higher in the front, so even if you sit in the front, your hips will be shifted back and your seat will be further from the windshield.
The relationship between the windshield and the seating position will be one of the factors that will change the experience.

If a 165cm rider puts the short windshield on FORTY-EIGHT SPECIAL and ride, the wind will be reduced to a little higher than rider’s stomach and a little lower than shoulders.
World Walk felt that there was no particular change in the wind around my helmet.
On the other hand, the long version was much less windy below the shoulders and a little less windy on the helmet.

Long type provides a solid relief of wind.
The short circuit will also be appreciated on the highway.
Especially in long-distance touring, you may feel the relief of fatigue.
