Default SV650 Naked Screen

Hi guys, not had the bike long, 6 weeks or so and I'm just trying to make it my own.

Sorry, I know this is aked a lot, but most of the threads have old eBay links.

I've noticed that when riding the bike I'm getting smashed about a bit by the wind. So, I'm thinking a screen.

I've spotted this, http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Windscreen...item5d2fd9b45b, just wondering f anyone has tried it. Or, any recomendations appreciated.

I like the look of this one, mainly as it keeps the original front end and just replaced the screen.
Problem is, I'm 6'2" so I may need something bigger.

Any thoughts please.

Cheers,

Cramman.

Howdoo cramman im only 6' so you 2" taller but i have an airblade double bubble screen on my naked as pic below which is similar to the second link you put on.



It takes the edge off the wind ok and shifts some wind from body area for me and much better than none at all but it is a naked bike and you cant really hide from the wind, gives you great neck and shoulder muscles though

I used this - - ->


for a while but it was quite dangerous!*
90 into a head wind felt like 60
so I went back to full naked.
Where are you? - mine's for sale
* to my licence.

I'm 6'1", and I've had good luck running a National Cycles F-16 sport. It puts the wind blast onto about your shoulders, so your helmet is still in the wind but it's smooth flow, no buffeting. Your neck muscles eventually toughen up. Here's a shot:




I came into possession of an Ermax Nasty as well, but sold it on:






that'll be easily available in the UK.

btw, there are quite a few threads on svrider.com about windscreens, so you'll find more info by spending a bit of time surfing...
