Title: Boxeye aftermarket screens
Post by: Grant1Shepherd on 15 July 2017, 07:13:05 pm
Hey guys


Looking to replace the standard screen on my boxeye FZS 600, was wondering what everyone's got or come across before?


Any links as well would be much appreciated.


Thanks in advance guys  :)

Most people who change end up with a double bubble with the intention of reducing wind blast but there are mixed experiences report on what if any difference they make I believe on the foxeye they make more difference than the boxeye. I have a DB screen on my boxeye and I found there is no difference in wind blast.

I'm not really after any performance boost I literally just want a nicer looking screen that's all  :lol

IMO none of them look better (nicer) - unless you have a blue bike and you fit an irridium screen with a blue base --- I think that works. Your bike being red I think you can get irridium red ones

Always put a Ffabri screen on my Boxeyes, imo it suited the bike the best and aided wind blast (a little)

I have a silver bike with a black double bubble.
I think it looks good and it does take a small element of wind blast off my shoulders, but does hit the top of my helmet. I notice if I duck down  it gets a little quieter.

I’ve a double bubble type screen, don’t know the make as I got it 2nd hand on here, but do prefer it to the OEM screen. The blast is directed more sideways to your shoulders rather than up to your head and neck as the original does. So there is less buffeting and wind noise (and less draught in the helmet which made my eyes water). But it’s not a massive effect, your head is still well above the top of the screen so it can’t protect you from that breeze, just from some of the additional air displaced by the front of the bike itself.
