Does anyone actually fold the windscreen down? I don't get it...

If the windshield isn’t there to take the hit, what does?

It's no different than riding a motorcycle, though you wouldn't catch me doing anything but off-reading with it folded down.

Thread made me research whether the windshield was legally required here.

It is not, however the windshield wipers are.

Loophole?

First time with the windshield down I wasn't a fan.

Did it again this weekend and it was fantastic. Will be doing this more. Except I swear it causes rain when it's not forecast. Grumble grumble.

cant see me ever doing it, besides the seal and wind noise is the best it will ever be so why risk it

Best reason for the folding windshield. If you damage the frame wheeling, replacing is easier and cheaper than repairing a fixed piece. Should be plenty at the wreckers by now.

Tried it just to see what it was like. Had a blast, brought back memories of my Army days. Although it doesn't take long to lower the windshield, I probably won't do it very often. Mind you, I said the same thing about taking the doors off and that turned out to be a lie.

While I don't do it often, I do like driving with the windshield down. I am a long time motorcyclist and this is about as close as you can get to a motorcycle feel with 4wheels.

With the full roll bar, the coolness of the look when the windshield is folded is lost.
