touring fairing
« on: 10 April 2018, 08:57:46 am »
high protection screen + 10 cm ermax for FZS 600 FAZER 98/2001
Hi all , love my fazer but the std screen is hopeless for dispersing rain off my visor, having terrible trouble with spray sitting on my visor.
is this a known issue with this bike (2001 mk 1 btw) ,  it could be just the ergonomics of my height V screen or  maybe its an issue for others too ?
wondered about getting a taller screen, has anyone tried this ermax touring screen ? if so what are your experiences with it ?
 id appreciate any replies.

Interested in this also- it's a toss up between a taller touring type screen or a double bubble one.

Hey I have a 2002 similar screen and i find it not perfect but fine.
it my be due to your height or even you helmet visor as i had one previously which was useless in dispersing the water.


good luck

Hey adasilva. Do you find there is an increase in buffeting at motorway speeds with the touring screen? I was just about to buy one when I read an old thread somewhere online that said the screen was good for dispersing rain but introduced a new problem with wind. Particularly cross winds when passing a truck or whatever.

Would be handy to have your thoughts.

Had an issue with the 'bobling head' sydrome on mine but only with a pillion, sorted it with an MRA screen with the adjustable vane. Might be worth a shot.
