Doing 60+ on the bike gets a bit breezy. Will a windscreen make much difference to the wind, and will it make for a more enjoyable ride?

Your thoughts would be appreciated.

I should say so. I've fitted a screen or extended the stock one on all my bikes, I can't be doing with wind blast.

Both my last 2 bikes benefited hugely from double-bubble screens being fitted Thumbs Up

Thank you guys. After being so impressed with the pinlock, the screen is next.

I have a 13 plate CBF125, which has the wind screen fitted on it.
When doing 50/60mph it feels a lot more sturdy than the YBR125 I trained on. I think the windscreen, plus the additional fairings make the difference.

I would get one if I were you.

Seems like a no brainer. I'm in!

I'm not sure the chicks dig windscreens though.

Taller windscreens look a little more 'commuter' IMO, but to each his own.

Just make sure your L plates match their lipstick, they'll be gagging for the pillion rides that you can't give them. Razz
