Puig windscreen was a hassle to install
I was surprised how much trouble my new Puig windscreen was to get on today. It was difficult to get the front holes lined up, and the rear holes were nearly 1/2" narrow on both sides. I had to pull the sides of the cowl inward and push the windscreen outward to get the rear screws in place. It took alot of force to make the silly thing fit.
I looks very nice, but if I even need another one I think I will buy a Zero-Gravity next time... Did any of you have this kind of issue?

I did not use Puig but I vaguely remember issues with it when I researched DB screens way back when. Zero Gravity FTW!

I had no problems installing mine. 5 minutes to get the old one out, 5 minutes put the new one in, tops.

maybe you're just not good with fitting things in holes

I bought a Hotbodies screen and had to press and bend to make it fit. I love it now, but cursed putting it in.
