Title: Have you guys seen any windscreens that are better than the stock one for an F ?
Post by: Bulwark on January 03, 2007, 11:49:03 AM
I was talking to my dealer today and he mentioned that there are some that would keep the wind off of me better than the stock one.

Thx

I know Jon (BOSS500) has a double bubble on his (I think from puig or maybe zero gravity, not sure) and from what I've been told by him and Dave (blue05twin) it makes a HUGE difference for them. I'm small enough that the stocker keeps most of the wind off of me. Dave's considerably larger (think... 6 footish?) and says it keeps the wind going over his helmet instead of hitting him in the chest, which is a good thing.

Try zero gravity's double bouble wind screen.  They do make different one's but I liked how the double bouble deflected the wind when I rode Jon's bike.

No personal exp with Puig but I have heard some bad things about them.  

Here's a link to the zero gravity ones

If you want a lot of wind protection I would go with the sport touring version.

Thanks all.  Im about 6 foot myself and the stock shoots the wind right into my chest and at high end it sucks :icon_razz:.
