Default Double Bubble or Flip screen ?

Hoping to get some touring in this year - - so thinking of a new screen for motorway riding

I notice that the flip screen is cheaper than the double bubble

Anyone got one of these and is it any good ?

I've got the older style sv650

The flip is probably better for touring, but the DB looks cooler. Still have to duck down to get out of the wind with a DB.

I would be interested to see a photo of this 'cack'. I'm intrigued, although I'm doubtful of it's appeal.
