was wondering who makes a larger fly screen that will bolt into the existing plastic housing that comes with the bike. just something a little bit taller that maybe is easier to hide behind and deflects a little more wind when on the highway.
Thanks!

My ZG Touring lifts the wind by 3,4,5 inches. More importantly, it's much more stable than the stock screen. Australian Eagle Screen has about 15 other models, but they're not showing pictures... PM me your email and I'll forward the pictures and descriptions I got from them. (if you'd like me to - I'll throw in suggestions about nice riding pants as well  ) (from your NEMHA post) |

I don't know about the quotes, but the email says to order by email and pay by credit card. |

oh, ok, thanks... any idea how the quality and fit is compared the the ZG? lots of people seem to like their ZG, but haven't seen much word on the Aussie gear.
Thanks

They have been discussed in Oz Monsters (Australian local club board). From what I remember - all good. You can post a question to check? |

thanks for the reply Nibor, which one do you have?
Yuu, do you have pics of the one you have (preferably on the bike)? i see the stock pic, but can't really tell the shape... how is it different than the stock fly screen?

Not my bike - but I found one. I only have it on when it's gotten rather chilly http://www.ducatimonster.org/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=5164It's a bit longer than stock making it taller. Also, as you can see in that photo it's got a bit of a kicked up lip that helps direct more air up and if it was just a smooth piece. |

Yuu, why do you only run it in the cold? does it block too much wind normally?

I have a GIVI that was on my bike when I bought it. You can have it if you want. I don't think I have the mounting brackets.  |
