 Anyone else with 2023 F3 WindShield cracking?
Good morning all
Has anyone had a problem with the WindShield cracking on their 2023 F3-T? My Windshield is cracking right at the mounting bolts...
Safe riding out there.

I hope to never experience this, but the causes IMO are somewhat limited:
Over torqueing mounting hardware
Defective windshield material
Excessive vibration of the Can-Am (vehicle issue or road conditions)

 with the mounting torque ..... if your spyder is fairly new, the dealer may have over-tightened them when they put it togwther .....JMH O ....Mike

Shouldn't there be a metal spacer in the center of the rubber grommet that prevents over torqueing?
