Puig Windscreen for '07

[dankatz]

Does anybody know the dimension of the PUIG touring screen? I can't seem to find that info anywhere on the internet. Is it 3", 4" or what taller and wider? I am wondering how it compares to stock and the Yamaha touring screen in size.
Thanks,
Dani

Hi,

Puig Racing is a +5cm and Puig Touring seems to be a +10cm
Puig Touring is 48cm tall.
48cm = 18.8976 inches
+5cm = +1.96850 inches
+10cm = +3.93701 inches
When i say + it means that you add this to the original size screen.


Here you can find screens on this site :
BS-Motoparts Store - Tuning, Styling & Protection. 2007-
This guy also sales from ebay.

Here's my pic of an original Yamaha vs a Puig Racing :



Can't tell you more about this because i've just installed this Puig racing screen.

Regards from France.

Great picture SlowRider. Really shows the difference.

I think we can all agree they look sweet. Can I get some more comments on how much better they protect in the wind & at what speeds? This is my #1 concern.

 

[Doorag]

Well, I haven't been on the motorway yet, but below 55 I haven't felt any wind at all. It's great!

I expect that I'll feel some wind as I get on the motorway, but I'm not sure how much yet.

 

[dankatz]

how tall are you Doorag? I am 5'8", so I am wondering if the racing screen may be enough and not get the touring for highway use.

I promised to give my feedback on the screen once I had a chance to really test it out. I got to do my long commute for the first time since I've changed the screen, so I thought I'd do a quick post.

Um, the difference is amazing! SOOOOO much better than the stock screen. Up to almost 80, I may as well be riding 40. It totally transformed my ride.

In the interest of, ahem... 'research' I took it up to +100 to see what it was like. Well, that's a lie really. What really happened was that I wasn't paying attention to how fast I was going (focusing on the road) and without the wind buffeting my head all around I didn't realise I was over a ton! I looked down and was completely surprised.

I know other people have said this before, but I'll add my voice to the choir - if you do any serious motorway/highway miles you really should do this mod. - unless you like being thrashed by the wind, that is.

I'm 6'1" and don't have any trouble. In fact, when I got down behind it this morning and I was +100mph, I didn't even have to lie on the tank to have totally clean air. That's saying something too - you haven't seen my beer gut.

 

[dankatz]

Nice review! You've convinced me to get the screen once I get the bike. Hopefully, by Sunday. They still need to locate a cobalt blue bike for me.

just ordered the racing screen and some frame sliders. The stock screen is not very good, even for my mostly city riding and I am only 5'8".

You won't be sorry. I'm 6'5" and the Puig racing screen made a huge difference. The air coming off the stock screen was extremely turbulent and hit me right in the throat. While I still get plenty of wind, the air is so clean that 80 eally does feel like 40 used to feel with the old screen. As a brand new rider, it gave me much more confidence at speed.

Hello
if you have a PUIG screen at you FZ6 Fazer S2 2007/2008, could you maybe post a picture and say if it is a touring or a racing screen?
BR Robert

I would like to view the mounted difference between the two.

07 w/ PUIG Racing Screen. Not a great pic, but I hope it serves your pupose.

I am 6'-7", so I get wind, but it is nothing like the standard screen. I like it alot, and have no intentions of changing it this winter. I have thought about cutting my factory down for the summer to get a little extra wind.

This is mine, it's Puig Dark Smoke Racing Screen:

I'm 6'3 and it made a huge difference. Cruising at higher speeds (at any speed really) is much more comfortable. I'm never taking it off!

 

[Rob2222]

Thank you.
But it looks like almost no one has the Puig Touring screen that is still 5cm larger. Would really know how it looks, cause I can't decide which to order.

I have seen pics of that Touring screen before, but it looks aweful, trust me. Get the Racing, it's more than enough.

here's mine

Hmm, anyone have a blue puig racing on a blue 2007 FZ6?

[SirIsaac]

here's mine

For a second there I wondered how you managed to get a picture of my FZ. Then I noticed that you you still have the "Puig" sticker on the upper right edge - I removed mine. Also looks like you have the T-Rex sliders, I have OES. It looks like you have the same bar-ends as me. Didn't you used to have a painted windscreen?

Touring screen on my bike. I am in process of setting it up for touring and this has been a GREAT mod - wind buffeting massively reduced. Dark smoke Puig. Some love it some dont but it's right for me. :Flip: I'm going fully faired so it will blend in nicely.:thumbup:
Note, my bike has oem knuckle visors which change appearance of screen indirectly by increasing height of fairing.
Hope this helps
