ABSTRACT:
A windshield is either pivotally mounted or breakaway mounted along its bottom edge to a motorcycle fairing and releasably held in an upright position by means along sides of the windshield which allow the windshield to separate therefrom and either pivot forward or fly away from the rider upon the rider striking the windshield. In one embodiment, the windshield is held by bendable U-shaped clips, and the release of the windshield is achieved partly through flexing of the windshield and partly through the bending of the clips. In another embodiment, a resilient windshield is held between a pair of rigid U-shaped brackets in a flexed state, and release of the windshield upon impact is achieved solely through the flexing of the windshield.
