Double Bubble Screen Wanted for Boxeye
« on: 10 July 2013, 09:50:38 am »
Hi Guys (and girls),
 
I a doing a wee Euro tour and thought a double bubble screen would help. I have been looking around on ebay, but don't really want to spend that much. If anyone has one to be rid of, let me know. Cash waiting, or can swap for other bike goodies, as you prefer.
 
Thanks

Hiya,


Seen as I do 100 mile a day commuting (70 miles on m/way @ 85-90) I thought the same as you and bought this


http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=111106305866


I reckon it made feck all difference & if i'm honest I reckon it's slightly worse than the stock item (front more vague and weavy at speed with no reduced buffeting)  :'(


Think you'd be better off with a taller touring screen some of the lads have fitted but don't have a link for you.


Have a good, safe trip fella!

Thanks guys. Digdug, I messaged the guy from that thread this morning. No reply as yet :(
 
I hope he gets back. As for the wind noise and buffeting, I think the height of the rider makes a difference. I find with the current one, the wind gets me right on the kisser!
