Default ZG Double Bubble Windscreen Pics

Here is my small write up / review of this product.

Price & Shipping:
$89.95 usd Currently 10% off list price from Revzilla. Free shipping and no tax for anyone outside of PA " I believe". Product was shipped in a very large box with large amounts of bubble wrap and paper to protect the screen. Screen also shipped with the directions seen in pic 4 . They are decent directions but are printed very small. I found the DIY screen post on these forums more useful while installing.

Quality vs OEM:
The most noticeable difference of this screen is the edge finishing which can be seen in pic # 1-3 . That I think is due to the manufacturing process. OEM has a very defined larger edge due to the injection molding they use. ZG uses a pressing method on acrylic sheets, so they have to polish these edges in final stages.This brings me to my next point flexibility. Due to the different materials that are used the OEM screen seems to have around 20-30% more flexibility. As you can see the mounting is spot on as OEM. Everything is almost exact, except for one factor. The Holes that are used for the bracket for the dash display do not have the locator tabs so you will have to turn the brackets to the correct angle to get everything to mount up. Dont let this sway you though, mine were not perfect when installing so I just used a small Allen wrench to turn them a little to get the screw in. Everything else seems to lineup with the bikes plastics 100%. Construction seems definitely solid overall.

Wind Deflection:
I noticed a large decrease of wind turbulence with this screen. It seems like the air is being deflected alot higher than previous. I cant come up with exact measurement as I do not own a wind tunnel, but since I am 6'-4" this is a godsend for me personally.


" I will edit and complete the write up soon. Thought I would at least get the pics up so people can see it installed."

Looks very nice my brotha. I wanted to get the Corsa, but it only comes in clear and light smoke. I was hoping it was available in dark smoke as well. I contacted Zero G and asked them if it came in dark smoke. They said no. They went on to say the Corsa was designed as a racing screen. So to stay true to that, they kept the Corsa in light smoke and clear. They said it will never be made in dark smoke. I was disappointed to hear that. I feel they will sell more of them if they were made in dark smoke also. But i guess I might just opt for the Double Bubble. I would like to see how the light smoke looks on the Corsa before I do buy. Guess I'll have to wait to see if someone posts that on here.
