I have been thinking about adding one to my scoot. Too many bugs down at the coast.

Hey word. I've heard you birng that up a few times now but I don't think I read the thread where you described what happened. So what happened? How did it try to kill you?

in short...she threw him into a ditch at afew many miles an hour.
Title: Re: ..windscreens..
Post by: wordslinger on July 03, 2012, 02:20:30 AM
..yes, she did...

..i sometimes ride with my left arm across the instrument panel, leaned forward in the most ninja turtle aerodynamic position i can muster...

..that was where i was...riding down the longest decline of my commute home from work, when that cyclops bitch shut down, threw me forward off balance, and slipped off a deep shoulder..front wheel planted and she slung me into the ditch....

..she lost her left side foot peg, and cracked loose the right side rear turn signal...


...after a select few minutes, she fired back up and took me home...


..i could find no reason for her to ever have shut down...dis-assembled cvt, carb, checked electricals...


..that pic i took with my phone...shortly after the ditch...looked like she was laughing at me...

..i sold her to a dude that has been riding her daily ever since...

Here is my screen from Agility 125. It is the Puig Touring. Here i have it mounted is as low as possible, and it even shields my hands a bit. Howerver, mounted this low, is not optimal for the rain. I'm 6 ft.

I have also mounted it higher (by sliding it up the posts, etc.), and it offers more rain/wind coverage. 3 inches higher makes a big difference -- but it looks a little odd mounted so high.

..that looks pretty spiffy!!


..does it effect handling?..like in winds??

..i could feel the puig on that people in the wind...

this size really does not affect handling, even at 45mph or higher, and even when mounted 3 inches higher than the picture. For me the only difference is the screen takes the brunt of the wind, rather than your upper torso. I got it on clearance for $95 OTD at a vespa/kymco dealer (CylceBarn in Lynwood, WA).  Glad you like it. I think if it was any bigger, I'd start to notice it affecting handling in windy conditions.

..yeah, the agility is a bit heavier up front, compared to the people..

..i could tell it was there definately..never tried any kind of shield on my agility, but i have a little cowl shield off a super 9 that i'm going to mount on it..


..just for looks..lol..
