Fleebay "Hong Kong" Double Bubble Screen

I saw this on Fleebay
eBay Motors: WINDSCREEN WINDSHIELD HONDA VFR 750 R VFR750 94 - 97 DB (item 140285316804 end time Dec-05-08 17:55:04 PST)

It is a Hong Kong double bubble windscreen. Has anyone bought one of these?

What do you guys think about them?

 

I had seen these on there quite a bit after I started looking for a DB for my '96. It is obvioulsy a knock-off and who knows about the quality. I passed on those and just bought a Zero Gravity. It being located here in the US and known for a being good quality manufacture was worth the extra $ IMO.

 

I'd say skip it. Purely to support local industry. I'm sure they're what you'd expect from a chinese knock-off.

For a little more you can get one directly from Zero Gravity. You can buy direct through their goofy website consumer commerce site at ZGOutlet.com

 

I got a windscreen for my 86 from them because i had trouble finding a nice original. It was fair quality and fit I would buy again.

 

I may have to go the Hong Kong route. ZG does not make a screen for my 93.

I have two screens that are scratched and worn out. I may just have to paint them to match the bike.

 

Honestly, I'm more than happy to give these "knockoff" brands a shot. It makes you realize just how overpriced a lot of motorcycle products are. All it is is a molded piece of Lexan plastic. If some guy in Hong Kong can make a windshield for $35 and undersell Givi or Zero Gravity, more power to him. Viva la capitalism, I say.

Case in point: I bought a 39L top case from eBay that was a blatant Chinese knockoff of a Givi model. It only cost $70, compared to like $300 for the Givi.

 

My 5th gen came with the Hong Kong DB shield and a scratched up stock. I put the stock shield on...MUCH better. I now have a ZG ST, but can't try it until spring.

I would avoid the e-bay Hong Kong stuff. Didn't fit that well and aerodynamics were no good.
