Default Cheap screen for Pointy?

So then, been looking on ebay at db screens. Seen a couple of powerbronze ones for around £50. Also saw some from china for between £13 and £25, did a bit of looking on here and noticed a few people had them. I was wondering if i should pay out on quality or do these 'cheap' screens do the trick? For a k8 pointy btw.

Cheers, Andy.

I bought an MRA db screen for mine (02 curvy) which was 50 or 60 quid I think. It fitted exactly, which was my main concern with the cheapy stuff. I'd read a few tales of people having to alter stuff to make cheap screens fit.

I fitted a cheap screen from good old china and it fits perfect. I think it was £12 which you can't complain about. If you don't like it then it's only cost a little amount of money. Mates of mine have spent silly money on screens and bits that attach to screen to make the ride more comfortable and their never happy and now down £70

I have a cheap smoked screen from ebay. Not a db but lipped at the edge. £25 I think.
