For some reason there aren't a whole lot of windshied options for the RTV-XG850.
Kubota wanted $800+ for their's. I found that a little hard to stomach since I consider these windshields as disposable...I went through 3 of them on my golf cart over 20 years and found that they got scratched, crazed, brittle and broken over time. I liked the split folding windshield on my golf cart and I drove with it folded down about 90% of the time.
I made up a drawing and had the local plastic fabricator make up the half windshield complete with cold bends to match the roll cage contours and a kicker lip on top to make the plastic a little more rigid. The cost to fabricate was about $250 which included the Lexan MR10 hard coated plastic. I bought a set of these roll bar clamps from Amazon.
The all in cost for this project was under CDN$300 (or about US$100 ;-)
I find the air flow good - hits me at 6'1" at mid head level, little wind on the torso. Good for cold weather and I still get to eat some bugs and grass seeds!
If anyone is interested I can post dimensions if you want to fabricate your own.
