The cover is secured by 850 lbs of N52 rare-earth magnets, designed to withstand crosswinds and rain at speeds up to 75 mph. This isn’t just about protecting glass—it’s about safeguarding your adventure.

Practical Guidance for Installation and Use

Installing the FIT Protection windshield cover on your Kawasaki KRX 1000 is straightforward. Begin by aligning the cover with the windshield, ensuring that the custom cutouts match your vehicle’s contours. The N52 magnets will automatically secure the cover in place. For optimal protection, ensure all edges are flush against the windshield. The cover’s design allows for quick removal in under 30 seconds—ideal for spontaneous off-road trips or sudden weather changes.

When not in use, store the cover in a dry, cool place to maintain its condition. Given the UV-stable materials, prolonged exposure to sunlight and elements is less of a concern, but proper storage extends the product’s lifespan.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Skipping the Fit Check: Always verify the fit before heading out. A poor fit can lead to the cover flapping in the wind, reducing protection.
  • Ignoring Magnet Alignment: Ensure magnets are aligned along the windshield edge for maximum hold.
  • Improper Storage: Avoid leaving the cover in damp or excessively hot environments when not in use, as this could degrade materials over time.
  • Overlooking Regular Maintenance: Periodically clean the cover to remove dirt and debris that could scratch the windshield.
