Hello everyone...I bought my bike with the screen cut down very short because it was damaged by the previous owner in a slow speed crash, its only a couple of inches tall and follows the shape of the nose fairing...I am obviously going to replace it for cosmetic reasons but I was wondering how useful it really is. Does it make much difference to the speed of the bike when you crouch down behind it? I have hit 140mph and the wind is really intense....do you think the screen is cosmetic or am I wasting my money going for a double bubble type?......I appreciate your replies guy's.

 

No you are not wasting your money, the screen makes a big difference in the resistance of the wind on your body. The double-bubble style will make even more of a difference from the OEM style screen.

 

a screen only makes a difference if you can tuck down low enough to get behind it. Otherwise, no screen will make a difference as you'll still experience buffetting and be a source of air drag for the rest of the bike.

 

cheers for the reply guys....my double bubble is on its way

 

Congrats on the windscreen. You'll notice a HUGE difference!

Who did you end up ordering through? The only one i could find selling one for an F2 was Zero Gravity

Plus the taller screen is nice if you get caught in weather and such. More to hide behind.

 

I ordered the screen from busters-accessories.com in the uk................its a double bubble and cost £39.99

 

Congrats. Post some pics up when ya get it on
