800 Fi Screen

desertpete · 12-31-2006, 04:21 AM

I have a 1999 800 Fi fitted with high Helibars. Does anyone recommend a bubble screen that has good aerodynamics and does not cause buffetting for the rider or pillion?

the zero gravity double bubble looks the best and still moves more air than stock IMHO.

Givi makes a nice screen too, with much more of a flip to it than OEM or DB.

I've got a Givi on my '04 with Helibars and it works really good. Highly recommended.

I have the Givi but I just dont like the looks of it. I should say had the Givi...up until today anyway... :)

I just purchased a Zero gravity double bubble, compared to stock I would say it's more comfortable in that when you are upright it moves the wind to your helmet and it's more soft (pressure), when tucked in I fit right under the stream of wind.

Keep in note I've heard people say it less comfortable than stock. for reference i'm 5"8".

I think the ZG has much better wind deflection than stock as well.

I have to agree with Howard. I have the same setup. The Givi windscreen is about 4.5" taller than stock and works quite well.
