My 2006 windshield is milky
Should I leave it alone or any suggestions on restoring it?

While the domain here is r1150r.org, you've posted (within that domain) on an R1200R forum for Hexheads, made from 2007-2010. So we're confused.

You're not clear about what bike the shield you have is mounted to, or what windshield you might have. Maybe the bike's a BMW, maybe an unfaired one like an 1150R. If I were energetic, I'd search on realoem.com for a 2002 BMW 1150R, to see if there's a windshield shown in the BMW parts fiche that relates to your "37, 540" number. Having a part number might help us know what the shield is, and thus what it's made out of, and thus how it might be restored. :smt102

If the shield is on an R1150R, posting on the specific forum for R1150R machines here: viewforum.php?f=2 might generate more knowledgeable replies.
