yeah..but i wear my saftey googles from work all the time under my helmet face shields are more resistaint to shattering...these ZG are advertised as not being shatterproof so ...I can vouch there not

I wish it'd hit my helmet

ztrack157 · November 13th, 2009, 02:53 PM

I think ZG is only a 2mm acrylic so they will break. they save a little bit of money on materials and you get a broken in half windscreen.

nate-bama · November 13th, 2009, 02:59 PM

Well I'm 6' 4' I think I'm gonna try one of those gay looking tall one's next., a Euro style...this bikes hurts me at high..well 70+ speeds

the zg made a difference from stock but did'nt do much for me on the interstate

Rayme · November 13th, 2009, 03:26 PM

acrylic ? UGH! I'd never buy something like that, polycarbonate is the only way for resisting impact.

yeah but it was pretty...WAS

Snake · November 13th, 2009, 07:19 PM

I have enjoyed mine ever since I instaled it. It does a great job of moving the air high and above my helmet.

Verus Cidere · November 13th, 2009, 11:30 PM

Too bad there aren't any other good looking screens for pregens. (If there are, someone PLEASE post a link.)

Honestly, I think it would make the bike look a lot more modern if the outer bubble were fairing-colored.

BlueRaven · November 14th, 2009, 10:37 AM

i got my zg windshield at zg outlet for $45 on ebay. G21-30 told me about it.

Thanks that's where i got mine also

Found ZGOutlet off this site also!

Sailariel · November 14th, 2009, 07:47 PM

Got mine there as well. I guess when it gets super cold we need to put our Ninjas and Corvettes up for the winter.

nate-bama · November 15th, 2009, 07:25 AM

I can't she's my commuter

bobaab · November 16th, 2009, 10:13 AM

That sucks

Looks like there's another reason not to ride in the cold :P

Or I can put on the stock one for the winter...

BlueRaven · November 21st, 2009, 06:07 PM

I'm still in denial and refuse to park the bike besides we've been having 50F+ temps here lately. Very unusual for this part of Canada especially for November. Was 57F yesterday

nate-bama · November 22nd, 2009, 07:03 AM

it's been 29f-39f in the mornings here for the last month...better than coffee

Im still in denial as well and I think my tolerance to the cold is getting better

I need at least a heated vest or something to ride in those temps nate...45 is the coldest I've done with my gear so far. I could ride, but it was cold!

Unless your ride is sans fairing. No windscreen to crack means I don't have to replace it.

nate-bama · November 23rd, 2009, 01:56 PM

Im still riding it around like that..what with xmas coming my bike...and I have to suffer

You can always paint it to match.

ASecretNinja · November 28th, 2009, 05:20 PM

Did you get a dyno test after the windshield went 'splode? I bet you picked up a good .1-.2 HP from the reduced drag coefficient.

nate-bama · November 29th, 2009, 06:30 AM

hahaha chad's back...hav'nt done that yet buddy

addy126 · December 1st, 2009, 06:58 PM

Geezuz.. thats crappy luck that is.

nate-bama · November 26th, 2010, 01:17 PM

bought a squad car from the local town hall and after they got upset about me running around with it marked i decided to make use of it's front plate and finally "fix" my windshield

it's still in it prototype phase ill probably black out the top plate

Have you tried contacting ZG? Bet they would replace it for you.

nate-bama · January 2nd, 2011, 09:22 AM
