Can anyone with roadster post picture or explain a fix for keeping the windshield from blowing open....back to steering wheel? Put on a new windshield/stanchions/rubber,etc... at about 35 she starts to blow backwards!

I am using new wingnut washers/new stanchions/new cups and new cones.
I'm thinking that new equals tooo smooth/slippery...need roughed up...??
I remember , on the old barn, that there were roadster owners with solutions to this problem...problem is didn't have windshield back when and can not remember any of suggested solutions!
