They use plastic because they break easily, and you'll appreciate that if
you ever have the need to launch yourself off the front of the bike. I've
personally watched my brother-in-law fly though a fairing windshield head
first, and the fact that the screen easily popped off allowed him to clear
the bike and land in front of it rather than be dragged along in the wreck.
