Default RE: Zero Gravity Double Bubble ???

Late in the thread, but, after Christmas and buying the bike and new gear and stuff, my first mod is the dark smoke Zero Gravity double bubble. I love it. The looks alone give it a great overall appearance. As far as wind, well, I'm a newb....first ride in 10 years. worth the few bucks I paid for it.

i have a dark smoke double bubble... and when lookin' thru the shield w/ a dark smoke shield on my helmet (90% of the time) i can hardly see...

at night it's really useless.. if the bike didn't come w/ it i wouldn't have put it on... clear windscreens are the most functional. and sure the dark smoke looks good, but that's it.

Why would you try to look through two tinted lenses at once? You wear sunglasses under that visor as well? Seems to be if it is dangerous I dont know why you put yourself in that situation. I personally would get rid of the smoke double-bubble and get yourself a clear one and stay SAFE!

A double bubble is designed to reduce the drag coefficient of wind on the rider. They split the air more efficiently (according to wind tunnel tests), and are especially usefully for riders over 5'10.
