Tried to get hold of one - even email the manufacturer in the USA several times. Got F*** all response, so in the end bought one of Spareshack Stu's taller screens for the standard fairing. Works a treat, keeping a lot more wind blast off your head and shoulders, and looks cool too IMO.

Got my Zero Gravity screen, delivery in 4days from the states,looks the part and does give more protection as its 4ins taller. I will post photo soon.Also fitted Monsterack which is a removable short backrest that flips over and can then be used as a rack. Took my wife out the other day and having the rest on stopped my balls getting crushed into the tank and stopped me getting an earfull if i pulled away a bit quick,great if you take kids as pilion.

The Monsterack is a backrest which is similar to the old moto guzzi one, it has a small detatchable pad and is very well engineered.There are two lugs which are bolted in between the grab rail and frame,these stay on the bike and the backrest is easely fitted to these by an allen bolt either side.If you put the rest on upsidown without the pad the rest lies flat over the rear light so you can tie
a bag ect. to it. Cant fault it,Its made in San-Fran by a guy who is mad on monsters and made as a sideline in his factory that makes medical instruments.I can organise delivery if youre having trouble and will try to get pics on today. He also makes some very nice mirrors but i took mine off as vision was not as good as standard.If you need anymore info leave message.
