    Does anyone have any pictures of their VFR with a Givi wind screen installed?

    Thanks!

    Thanks for the picture. It looks like it would cut the wind and send it up over your head very well.

    I have one for when I go touring and it does a very good job of putting the air over the top of my head. I don't find it real attractive, however, so I change it back to stock when I get back. I'm trying to find a screen that has the flip but is close to stock height.

    I have one to and it works fine. I thing it look good on my bike to. After all this is a sport-touring bike. The thing is that with this windscreen you feel you can go faster with out the wind to bother you at all. Last week I came back from a ride to Athens (500 kms) and I was very exiting about the wind protection!:biggrin:

    I dunno. I have only had the Givi so I haven't felt stock. I did have a FZR and I remember the buffeting from that. The VFR with the Givi seems to put the wind right on my shoulders. I can tuck behind it easily, though, and that's a big change from the 'crotch rocket'. I have wondered if some of the noise I get in my helmet is from where the wind hits. It's certainly quieter when tucked, but they all are when tucked. I have considered getting a tinted aftermarket lower profile but everyone that has the givi has told me I wouldn't like to go back. I have the stock one in storage so I guess I could just try it a couple days and see/hear the difference...
