Bought a brand new one for the 954 and it broke after one month of riding.

What other ones out there hold together good? :x

I suggest you paint the inside of any aftermarket Windscreen.
I have a burnt tach needle and cover due to the sun and bad luck parking. :(

Try a Sportech wind screen. They come in all kinds of colors and they really make the bike look sharp. Go to www.sportechinc.com I've had no problem with mine.

Well sport tech it is. I think that the wheelies are what broke the other. but it didnt seem to hurt the oem one. Well give this one a try and see what happens. :wink:

You also may want to check out Fabbri, MRA, Powerbronze and Pyramid. All make great products.

if you want a stock smoke screen maybe take yours off and bring it to a place that does window tinting. I'm sure they can hook you up with some nice limo tint on the inside or something :)

Newbie here!hey guys,just bought a sport tech windscreen myself off ebay last week and looks awesome.its a double bubble type( show chrome) which you can see through in the daytime just fine.Really helps deflect the wind off my big head.Tucked in and turned on the heat to 170 yesterday. I'm still a puss as it was still runing hard and let off. laters. try and post a pic if I can figure it out.

Welcome R1NOT :!: I hate that, I didnt buy a chrome cause everyone said you couldnt see through it. I got the dark. OH well I like the dark too. I busted the screen cause of wheelie set down. When I get back on my feet well see if this one will hold together :wink:
