I can see through mine with my dark tinted sheild on my helmet. I also have a tank mount for my camera and you can see just fine with that too. About that stand its just some cheap no name from ebay that I got for $35 shipped. I wouldn't suggest sitting on the bike when its on the stand but its paid for itself already. I can't remember the user name though.

Anybody got a pic of the ZG double bubble on a silver 05 f4i? Since we don't have black designs on our bikes I'm wondering how the dark smoke one looks.

Turnin20s,
What brand rear fender eliminator kit do you have on your bike? Do you have any other pics of this on your bike?

Thanks,
-John

all the double-bubble ones are the same shape, from the cheapo copies on ebay to name brands. the only difference will be quality, optics, and price. the cheapo ones appear purplish, and you can see the plastic isn't a uniform thickness and that affects whatever you view through them - it appears wavy and distorted. zg is good, but i went with puig after seeing one on a bike - they're 3mm thick, excellent quality, and a solid screen. to me puig was the best quality and thickest screen. they have smoke and dark smoke, which is nearly black, but you can still see through it.

the puig db screen is the "race" screen. plan on spending about $65 on one.

I'm 6'0" and have the tinted ZG db. I notice that I still get a lot of wind at highway speeds. I thought the db would cure that. I have to tuck in to cut the wind. Anyone have any suggestions?

Your Stock one...what I did was just take it off and spray paint the inside black, I know im cheap but why spend $60-100 on a damn windscreen that you cant see out of anyway...save some money and spend it on something more useful for your bike. My bike looks great and you cant tell it is spray painted.
