Default F3 Windscreen

Looking for an oversized or maybe contoured windscreen.

Who makes such an item?

I suspect the above post is some sort of scam- beware until confirmed otherwise.

I don't think it was a scan, I just think he was talking about this company.

Yes, thank you- that is a whole lot better. If you just google it without the Racing part- you get a junk site... but I digress.

Let me clarify. I have a friend with a Ducati 1098 and he added windscreen that has a nice up-turning lip around the top- apparently provides a good bit more coverage. I would swear it was an Aeroflow but they don't list one for the F3.

So... anyone know a source for a windscreen like the one I describe or in other shapes/sizes than stock?

There called Flip Screens, not to my taste personally but allot of the guys on the old zx6e and zzr forums liked to use them.

Quick question for those of you who have upgraded the standard screen on the f3..

Was there an increase in noise levels since the upgrade? If i duck behind my standard screen, the break in wind flow from the screen seems to cause more wind roar, wondered if it was the same on a dubble bubble etc?

On the same topic as the OP, does anyone have any experience with the double-bubble style vs. the flip-up style? I'm considering buying one, too, and want to know which style will provide the best wind deflection and noise/buffeting reduction before I buy. Does the lip really work that well on the flip-up style?

I went from stock to double bubble and its much nicer now. When I duck behind the double bubble the wind noise is much lower than stock. the double bubble sends its perfectly over the top of my helmet.
