I bought an airblade last week. Not the best quality it has to be said Confused . Bubble is off centre slightly and the form does not have perfect symetry. 1 inch gap both sides after the front bolts were fitted. The standard plastic bolts were not man enough to pull this in so had to fork out another £10 for decent alloy bolts. Not sure I actually like the look but it works pretty well.

Because Airblade screens are cheap, they don't have a nice finish or sit flush on all bikes, had trouble fitting one to my R6 & left a big gap & none of the holes seemed to properly line up. also someone off here had trouble fitting one to their Gsxr.

Not bad for the price but if you want quality then spend a bit more.

MRA, Zero Gravity and NWS are supposed to be the best quality.

Although be careful because NWS sold their hugger moulds to Powerbronze (who are SHITE, as well as Skidmarx) but I'm not sure about their screens.

You get can MRA on BikeHPS.com

i had a Fabbri double bubble over summer,
i loved the look of it and how it blocked high speed wind.
that got taken off due to my sister dropping the garage door on it.
i now have a, i think, Skidmarx screen. after one ride out i have decided it has togo.
may try a Ermax Aeromax screen, looks nice but expensive at £75.

If not an official item, I'd opt for an MRA.

Not to be confused with MRSA.

My Dad has an Airblade for his ZX9R and it fits perfect and works fine for him.
