No, no - not that.
Anyone else riding behind just the headlight - with no wind screen of any kind?
I'm going on 4 yrs with my bare LIKE200i.
Even in dead of Ohio winters I'm not tempted to add a screen. Not sure why.
And removed the big stock screen that came on the Burgman (horribly turbulent around head) for a shorty sport screen from the French.

Have gone without windscreen nearly 5 years. I don't feel the need to add one.

I only ride behind a screen. I took them off my Kymco and Honda for a short time, did not like it. Removing the screen actually slowed my top speed on my People. Guess I am not as aero as smooth plastic.

Going naked I see. Brave folks.

I'm all about comfort when I ride and my Givi is a big part of it. I like to wear half helmets when it's warm so I can hear my radio and take a cool drink of whatever's in my cup holder and stretch out on my highway pegs. Now that's crusin...LOL, to each his own.

Never tried a half helmet? My Nolan modular gets pretty hot in the summer. Hmmm??

Same here. When I added the screen to my P150, I noticed a big difference in comfort. Mainly, those rascally bugs were hitting the screen instead of me. Also, much much warmer to ride with one in the cooler weather - it really extended my riding season.

Just make sure it's DOT (Department of Turkeys) approved and keep the chin strap tight. I had a friend who was wearing non-approved novelty helmet and he hit a deer and his head struck the pavement, without a helmet. After a year and a half, he could say his name.

This is all I ride. I really had no desire to get a screen. Maybe soon I will get one. I have both a full face and a 3/4 helmet with the shield. When it is cooler, I wear my full face/ modular helmet which keeps me very warm. At this time my Agility 125 scooter is my only means of transportation here in Vegas. I sold my car a few days ago. It needed a whole lot of work to get it up and running again. I admit I do not look forward to June and July which are the hottest months here in Vegas. I will adjust. I rode a few years before I got a car. In due time I will have a car again. In the summer months, I just need to avoid going out during the day. The night time is not that bad at all.
