Title: Wait, why'm I riding behind a dark screen?!

I always ride in a high viz jacket or vest. Then one day I saw my refection while riding behind the dark sport-screen on my Burgman.

"Why am I even partially covering my high viz with this screen?!"

So, since these French Ermax screens are pretty much a bargain - I put a clear one on. Not as zoomy looking - but safer...

Stig, still learning....

PS: I hated the head-buffeting of the orig. tall screen which Suzuki put on these things. The short Ermax rode so much better.

I did just the opposite on my Xciting's  and took off the short clear screen and put on a tall shaded screan.  Someone had already done that to my carbureted Xiciting's. I'm under 6 foot and the extra height allowed the wind to flow over my helmet.  The shorter screen I would have to go into a partial tuck to accomplish this.

Nice pics of course Stig, but I thought you sold that a while back?
