You should be able to get one for around £50, try Demon Tweeks.

Eh?

I had a double bubble on my VFR400, quite handy on a bike like that because the standard screen provides nothing at all to hide behind when you need to (on track).

Had one on most of my bikes, i need it on my kwak as the standard screen gets in the way of the speedo. I cant see what problems they would cause?

on both the Firestorm and Thunderace I fitted AirBlade double-bubbles.

Both have made a big difference to the comfort at speed, directing the air up and over me, rather than into me, without needing me to crouch onto the tank.,

Got an MRA DB on, very nice and all but I find it tends to flex at higher speeds as it's very light, say around 120mph it gets the wobble on, and around 150+ it's like Rolph Harris has gone berserk with his a-wibble-wobble-wibble-wobble board.

Like above, demon tweeks seemto have well priced ones, mine cost £70 from HPS's? website.

I've also got a MRA screen, I wouldn't be without it.
The standard screen on the Kawasaki was very low and the new screen made a great difference. It doesn't take all the wind blast away but ( I'm 6'1" ) but it does helps alot.

When I had a sit on the C1 model the standard screen blocked out half the clocks, my B1 was fine though.
