Default Windscreen Opinions

Okay boys, I'm making headway with my modifications, my two brother V.A.L.E M2 carbon fiber exhaust arrived in the mail yesterday, but now I'm looking for a dark smoke double bubble windscreen. The Zero Gravity is what seems most popular, but I'm liking the look of the Puig. Is there only these two brands out there? Looking for good opinions.

Yeah dude there are about 21 different kinda windscreens you can get...
I would stay away from double bubble it has been known to melt your gauge cluster...
here is the site with different kinds there are so many more websites where you can get more for cheaper but i don't think i can name the places...

Read post number 5 here https://cbrforum.com/forum/cbr-600rr-12/sr-vs-double-bubble-121590/

If the conditions are 100% perfect then yes that can happen but its unlikely.

As for the guy looking for screens look at the same thread posted above. It shows all the different heights. Im personally going with a DB as it will help throw the wind over me.

Yeah, I live in central Oklahoma, and a good majority of bikes have the double bubble windscreens so I doubt I'll have problems with the instrument panel.
I'm just hoping to get peoples opinions on different brands.

I have a '97 F3 and I use a fairing much like the Moto Brackets' polycarbonate windscreen shown on the Motorcycle Superstores website on Jasonb's Reply message and it works much better than the Zero Gravity double bubble I had on before. It effectively increased the wind turbulance about 4 inches higher. I am 5'6" and the wind hits me about chin level when ducking down half way where as with the double bubble was useless unless your in a full tuck (which isn't street friendly in my opinion!)
