3. Installation Guide
Before beginning installation, ensure your motorcycle is parked on a stable, level surface and the engine is off and cool. It is recommended to wear appropriate safety gear, such as gloves and eye protection.
3.1 Tools Required
- Hex key set
- Wrench set
- Phillips head screwdriver
- Soft cloth (for cleaning)
3.2 Step-by-Step Installation
- Prepare the Motorcycle: Carefully remove any existing front fairing or windshield components from your HAOJUE VSR125 that would interfere with the new windshield installation. Refer to your motorcycle's service manual if unsure.
- Attach Mounting Brackets: Identify the designated mounting points on your motorcycle's front assembly. Secure the provided mounting brackets using the appropriate bolts, washers, and nuts from the hardware kit. Do not fully tighten at this stage.
- Position the Windshield: Carefully align the MTOBODO windshield with the attached mounting brackets. Insert the remaining bolts through the windshield's pre-drilled holes and into the brackets.
- Adjust and Tighten: Once the windshield is loosely attached, adjust its position to ensure it is centered and level. The design allows for lifting adjustment; ensure the mechanism operates smoothly. Once satisfied with the positioning, gradually tighten all bolts, ensuring even pressure to prevent cracking the windshield. Do not overtighten.
- Final Check: Gently shake the windshield to confirm it is securely mounted and does not wobble. Check all bolts for tightness.

4. Operating Instructions
The MTOBODO Front Windshield is designed for passive protection and features a lifting adjustment mechanism.
4.1 Wind, Insect, and Dust Protection
Once installed, the windshield provides a barrier against wind, flying insects, and road debris, improving rider comfort and safety. The aerodynamic design helps to redirect airflow over and around the rider.

4.2 Lifting Adjustment
The windshield incorporates a mechanism for height adjustment. To adjust the height:
- Locate the adjustment points on the mounting brackets.
- Loosen the designated fasteners slightly (do not remove them).
- Carefully slide the windshield up or down to your desired height.
- Once the desired height is achieved, securely tighten the fasteners.
Always ensure the windshield is firmly secured before riding.
5. Maintenance
Proper maintenance will prolong the life and clarity of your windshield.
5.1 Cleaning
- Use a soft, clean cloth and mild soap with water to clean the windshield.
- Avoid abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals (like ammonia-based products), or rough cloths, as these can scratch or damage the surface.
- For stubborn dirt or dried insects, soak the area with water for a few minutes before gently wiping clean.
- Dry with a separate clean, soft cloth to prevent water spots.
5.2 Inspection
- Regularly inspect the windshield for cracks, deep scratches, or other damage that could impair visibility or structural integrity.
- Check all mounting hardware (bolts, nuts, brackets) periodically for tightness. Vibrations from riding can cause fasteners to loosen over time.
6. Troubleshooting
Here are some common issues and their solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Windshield vibrates or rattles | Loose mounting hardware | Check and tighten all bolts and nuts securing the windshield and brackets. |
| Reduced visibility | Dirty or scratched surface | Clean the windshield thoroughly. If scratched, consider polishing with a plastic-specific scratch remover or replacing if damage is severe. |
| Difficulty adjusting height | Fasteners too tight or mechanism dirty | Loosen fasteners slightly more. Clean the adjustment mechanism to remove any dirt or debris. |

- Regular Checks: Make it a habit to quickly check the tightness of mounting bolts before each ride to prevent unexpected vibrations or detachment.
- Storage: When not in use, store your motorcycle in a shaded area or use a cover to protect the windshield from prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can cause material degradation over time.
