Has anyone TINTED their screen?
I'm looking to tint my windscreen, and I wanted to know if anyone else has tinted theirs? I mean film tint, not spray paint. I was planning on getting the 5% stuff. Any suggestions? Tips?

just buy a double bubble black windscreen...youll get the black you want and youll get the extra comfortable ride that you get from the double bubble...

Yeah, I'd just buy a pre-tinted screen like a ZG Double Bubble or Puig. I've got a ZG Double Bubble with the dark tint (not completely blacked out) and it's great. Looks blacked out from a distance but I can still see through it when I'm tucked on the highway. I bought mine from motorcycle superstore.
Edit: Haha, there it is in my avatar. See? Looks blacked out :P

Did this myself. $7 plus some blue painters tape and you're good to go. And since it's not spray you can just peel it off whenever you want. |

Has anyone tried RIT dye? I'd like to tint mine, but I still want to be able to see through it in full tuck for the twisties....

The window tint film is extremely difficult (if not impossible) to get onto the inside of the windscreen.
