Default Screens

Has anybody tried the Givi A3111 screen or Puig sports screen on a 2020 model SV650A ? (The Puig double curvature screen looks good but you have to drill a hole in the original plastic above the headlight that puts me off a bit )

Yes. I have had the Givi fitted for several years.



Does it make a difference? Yes
A big difference? Not as much as I expected.
Is there buffeting? A bit when there's a slight crosswind, not excessive.
How tall am I? 5'6
Would I buy it again? Yes

The buffeting's probably from the giant mudflap

yeah, that one didn't work out - it was so ugly that innocent road users were being turned to stone if they made eye contact with it.

What was needed was a bigger one... a few ebay purchases later and the Worlds' Largest Mudflap™ was born; bigger, aesthetically pleasing, my Magnum Opus! I can't show a picture, there's insufficient screen space.

Anybody tried the Ermax sport screen on the Gen3 SV650A ? I like the look of it but it appears taller than the Givi A313 and could be more prone to cause buffeting. it also requires a hole drilling in the existing cowl for the bottom bolt fixing.
