Question For All The Naked Folk
 
Right folks, because the SV was tradgically(sp?) stolen a couple of weeks ago, im now riding a honda Bros.

Now, as my old CG doesnt go over 65mph :lol: , i never really suffered from wind blast.

But this Bros goes a bit faster and motorways are...well a nightmare to say the least.

Can anyone recommend me a good universal screen, something a little sporty if poss.

Thanks

Naked bikes aren't really for cruising on Motorways - learn to hold on tight, and develop thick neck muscles :D

I'm not sure what the Bros is like, but the shape of the instruments on the naked SV deflect some of the airflow - I never really found it to be too much of a problem unless going over the ton for some time

I have a Puig windy screen from Busters, There's a lot of scams going off at busters (Supposedly... disclaimer) so i'd try and source one from somewhere else. It's angle adjustable and has a double bubble effect so takes most of the blast away from you.

I have a F.Fabbri screen on my naked curvy which deflects most of the blast (I am 6'0" tall)... looks good too, took it off once and actually preferred it with it fitted! :shock: :D

I fitted one of the heine gericke ones to my GF's NTV. £25, works a treat.

Screens on naked bikes just look soooooo wrong. Lean into the wind and be a man :lol: .

You must have the neck muscles of a pro-wrestler! :lol: Or am I just a complete wimp! :shock: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Slide your bum to the back of the seat, this leans you forward a dab and makes a surprising difference to high speed riding.

140mph on a naked hornet isn't all that abd to be honest, I think having owned 2 naked bikes before made me immune :wink:

Get yourself into HG - They do light/tinted and iridium DB screens for naked bikes for £25. Do it. They work VERY well!!!
