Title: Aftermarket windscreen options besides ZG? Post by: DucNrun on August 25, 2009, 09:32:08 AM There was a guy on TOB who had a tinted windscreen on his S2R1K. It wasn't a Zero Gravity screen and the height was approx. halfway between stock and the ZG Touring screen for monsters...any idea what I'm talking about? I seem to recall that the dude from TOB got his screen from a German website, but I could be wrong. Anybody know what I'm talking about? And do you have a link to the site that sells these screens?

(http://i26.tinypic.com/2cdg9hj.jpg) I can't really tell but the picture above appears to be a ZG windscreen (logo top right) Title: Re: Aftermarket windscreen options besides ZG? Post by: stopintime on August 25, 2009, 10:37:56 AM Perhaps German DesmoWorld?

Post by: arai_speed on August 25, 2009, 12:25:20 PM OK - my post is definitely a ZG custom windscreen made specifically for that bike. I emailed ZG and got this response:
Quote All of the items we built for that bike were 1 off customs. However, you are no the first person to ask for these items today. We are looking at the possibility of making these as production pieces right now. I will keep your e-mail and update on our progress. If they made that I would buy it in a heart beat!

Thanks!!

Thanks!! My taller Zero Gravity is MUCH more stable at high speed than the stock screen (I added the PoorDucRider stays anyway) It raises the wind stream - I'm tall, so that meant from my upper chest/throat to my face/visor. It's better, but not ideal. There will be turbulence behind most screens - the issues it creates is probably very individual. No screen is more quiet, but at high speed it will be a lot of wind hitting your body at full force. I like the protection, but hate the turbulence.

The ZG Touring windscreen makes a significant difference in wind blast. I'm also tall (6'2"), and wind hits me in the helmet instead of mid-torso. |
