| Bubble Screens - any good? After my first epic ride across the peak district, one thing i did notice is the buffeting you get riding along. A friend recommended getting a bubble screen (60 quid). Any ideas? any good? how do they work? simple to fit? I'm going to start commuting to work on it (occasionally)  and that involves a stretch of motorway and dual carridgeway. Are they any good on motorways?Comments and opinions welcome |

| Re: Bubble Screens - any good? some here for £30 free P & P Screens from hotbikebits Don't know if they are any good or not. I have a screen on mine but as soon as I don't need somewhere to stick my L plate, it will be coming off  |

On our BMW K75S I added six inches of perspex to the top of the screen attached with five plastic number plate nuts and bolts. It really surprised me the difference it made in very windy and or wet conditions, at 60mph plus speeds. | |
