I got the Zero Gravity double bubble with the bike when I bought it second hand. Didn't put it on until a few months later and it made a big difference. It's a clear one though and I would love for it to be smoked. Does anyone reckon it would be possible to take it to a window tinting shop and get it done there? Or would it not work to well on the plastic/exposed to the elements?

Got the Zero Gravity sport touring in smoke:



Smoke looks awesome actually :D

Thanks for the update!

Dang... tried ordering with Zero Gravity and they told me that both the double bubble and Sport touring are on backorder... boo!

www.newneough.com has the sport touring in stock for the gs500F.  In both clear and smoke.  They don't carry the double bubble.

Thanks!  I was leaning towards the sport touring anyways. 

Funny... it's cheaper at NewEnough than at Zero Gravity.

^^^ Looks good!  Thanks for the link, but I'm in Canada... so shipping will kill me.  But even still the shipping to Canada from US (NewEnough) is $25.50 more!

I do live about an hour from the border, so I might use one of those mail depot places and ship it there.  It's a good excuse to load up on junk food available only in the US and not in Canada. :icon_lol:

just installed the ZeroGravity Sport Touring screen. It seems kind of thin but it's much quieter at highway speeds. I can duck below it and it's eerily quiet. I am 5'9" by the way..

I have spoken to the dealer, and they are happy to supply to the US or Canada for a reasonable cost - simply email Danny your address and ask for a quote in $$$ sales@intobikes.co.uk

I posted this in the Aust meet and greet, but thought it might be approprite here as well

Just thought I would let you know that you can order Zero Gravity windscreens direct from the Zero Gravity on-line shop (www.zgoutlet.com)
I have been quoted some ridiculous prices from bike shops! With the exchange rate being so good it will cost me 113.50 delivered for a Sport touring smoked screen, which is less than half of what I've been quoted here in Australia!

I got the sport touring from ZeroG and I love it. I ride three piece cafe bars so when I tuck in it im laying on the tank. Behind this screen I hear nothing but the engine screaming. No wind, no road noise, just the sweet 4 stroke symphony. This screen has definatly helped with my winter riding and no goggle summer riding. I do agree with the previous post that this screen may need shaved though. Mine is slightly crooked when viewed from the top. I havnt shaved it yet but if you are a perfectionist, expect to break out the dremel. And for gods sake be careful with the plastic screws. They strip like Paris Hilton after half a beer.
