I'm after a new screen for my CBR600F, mainly to try and get out of the wind blast. Had a lookie round t'internet and at a bit of a loss at to which ones are best. There are some real cheapo ones about £15, then some more expensive ones about £50-£60. Not really after an iridium one, just plain on light tint on it would be fine, though there's loads out there, just haven't a clue which ones would give the best fit etc.

Suggestions as always much appreciated biggrin

I've got a F.fabbri double bubble on my R1, pretty good fit, can't remember where it came from or how much it was, it's been on the bike for nearly Three years.

I've used Fabbri on all my bikes and you can always sell them on when and if you sell your bike as people always want them

Ta very muchly biggrin

One problem i'm finding is that the years they have listed never seem to cover my bike. It's an 06 on a 56 plate, but all the ones i've seen so far only list the model year up to 03 or 04 confused
Is there a difference, or am i just being a bit dim?

I'd recommend Puig/Motoplastic double bubble screens.

I've had then on a couple of different bikes and the quality is the best out there. They are polycarbonate so shatter proof (doesn't mean unbreakable, just it shouldn't shatter on impact), they fit very well but as I recall fitting onto a CBR600F is a PITA and they are available in either dark tint (see through) and light tint (grey). The CBR600f remains cosmetically unchanged except for paint schemes since 2001 so you'll have no problems sourcing any aftermarket stuff for it.

Wouldn't recommend clear as I've known of bikes that have had there clocks melted by the screens magnifying the suns rays!

Pyramid Plastics sell them as there own but also stock Skidmarx screens so if you buy from them make sure it's a Puig screen you get. Think Busters sell them and Crescent as they use them on the MotoGP bikes as well as many other top racing teams.

Nooooooo never touch LM Spares!!!! They are such dog robbing dog robbers.
They sold me a wrong part once... then when i took it back they tried to give me the SAME part back on purpose pretending it was the right one, i knew it, and they knew i knew it and gave up the pretence...

They said come back next week and they'd have the right one in.. I did, and they tried to give me the same one again!

I asked for a refund and they tried to knock off 2 deductions for stock handling etc I played merry hell with them until they gave up.

People in the trade know not to go near them. Blade do you live near Hereford or something? Or do you work at LM??? redface
