DBS Double Bubble Screens

Hi,

Has anyone tried one of these? I picked my bike up yesterday and think she needs a bit more wind protection. I don't like the look of the touring screen and these screens seem good value at less that 40 pounds.

Thanks in advance,

Scoot

I've had 3 screens on my bike, stock, 2" higher Targa Sport Screen & the current ZG Double Bubble. The ZGDB is the best of the 3.

I did a review of the 3 somewhere on the board but can't find it at the moment.

KC-10 FE out...

Hi KC-10 FE,

Thanks for the reply, I don't recognise any of those screens from this side of the pond.
I'll try and search on the forum for your report.

Thanks again,

Paul

Hey Scoot,

I have the Zero Gravity - Double Bubble windscreen. It provides more windprotection than stock, but you still get blasted. Easier to tuck behind and looks much better than stock (in my opinion) though. See pics of my bike below.





I am not sure what year VFR you have, so I will include a link for 5th and 6th gen. You can see that they have a "SR" verision, a "double bubble" and a "sport touring" version as well. Oh, and don't order it directly from Zero Gravity unless you want to "get bent over the table" with $$$ prices.

5th gen link

6th gen link

Hope this helps.

I bought a new one on ebay for less than $22 delivered. One of these days I'm even going to put it on. Ride safe, Dave

Hi,

I think mine is the Generation 5, it's a 2001 bike registered in 2002.

The Zero Gravity Sports Touring looks good. I do about 14000 miles a year in all weathers so it would give the best protection but still looks the parts.

Hey Derstuka, your bike looks good and looks like mine, is yours generation 5?

Thanks for the help,

Scoot
