which windscreen?

jamison75 · 03-30-2009, 1:37 PM

I recently purchased the LE 08 CBR1000RR and I am trying to find out what dark tint windscreen to go with. If anyone has pictures or advice I would greatly appreciate it.

my 929 has a zero gravity double bubble, it fit perfect

I just put on a puig & hate it. I have dk.smoke and it has a slight purplish tint to it. I'm gonna try hotbodies or zero gravity! Again, I HATE this windscreen it's purple, it reminds me of old school window tint

+1 for zero gravity

spina220 · 05-05-2009, 9:06 PM

zero gravity double bubble.

If they make them for your bike, F.Fabbri hands-down.

- Thick plastic.
- Great fit.
- No "crease" where the bubble begins, just one fluid screen.

I have a Fabbri on my 954RR - can't beat the quality (have a look in my gallery)

Got a Zero Gravity DB on my 09 Blade, Looks good and does a great job.
Well worth looking at.

Hope this pic is of some help

If Carsberg made motorbikes then they would be probally still not as good as a Blade

Go with the Puig DB I love it! I have the dark smoke.

RepsolKiwi · 05-15-2009, 11:18 PM

I have a Hotbodies on my 08 that looks great but the fit at the bottom is very poor, won't buy another from Hotbodies.

This is my ZeroGravity Smoked DB http://www.fireblades.org/forums/att...en-bladefr.jpg

Just got my track bike back from the shop. They put a Zero Gravity DB without asking me. Nice screen, but I like the Fabbri much better.

So whats the deal with the factory dark ones? My buddie got a yamaha one for his R1 and it fits perfect as would be expected due to it being a factory fit.
1. Are they way more expensive? Corse ya get what ya pay for. Sorry to hear about purple ones and non fitting, that sucks
2. I am surmising that the factory does not make a doulble bubble. How much of a difference does the doulble bubble make? I mean the sleed low pro factory one looks nice in Dark smoke as far as the ones i have seen.

It only makes a difference if your racing, or actually like to ride real fast, it is much easier to get your face behind a double bubble, for me anyway. If your not buying a db for that than it is just for looks.

By the same token, a regular profile screen allows more wind-flow and can take a little more of the pressure off of your wrists while street riding.
