• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

We have a 2010 RT and got caught in the rain all day today and I was wondering does anybody make a windshield wiper for this yet??
 
I put a good water repellant on the windshield. Today was the first time I've been caught in the rain (since we've only had 1/2 in since Feb!). I ran the windshield all the way up. The only problem is that the windshield in the up position is to upright for the wind to push the rain off. No wonder the gas mileage is so bad!
Windshield wipers don't do well on non-glass windshields. Scratches too easily.
 
Rain X eats plastic windshields, look for a rain/water repellant specifically designed for plastic or fiberglass. sometimes boat dealers carry such things
I also think Lamont recommended a specific product in a much earlier thread. -still looking for it..
 
Hi

Maybe you could wax it , when i wax the bike , i wax all the Tupperware and the windshield. But i don't remember how it look like when it rain.

I use Meguairs products I use Meguairs Ultimate Quick Detailer it as hydrophobe formula with a good microfiber.

I like and use Meguairs only for many years on all my toys.

Have good summer.

Yesterday was the first time I ever rode in the rain. I am a fair weather rider mostly. It poured for about 10 minutes and I was soaked, but it was fun. It's only water. The wind and water was so strong that a windshield wiper wouldn't have worked anyway.
