Member Contributer Rivcyko Posted September 17, 2006 Member Contributer Share Posted September 17, 2006 Hi all. Finally started production of 5th gen. Bug Busters. Smoothing of the process is ongoing. Got the first one off. (Got a bit heavy on the clear coat). Need to take this one down and re-clear, but you get the idea. I'm afraid it's black only now. C.F. and texilums are in the works. They are what they are. 100_3272.JPG 5th gen. 3 100_3277.JPG 5thn gen. 2 100_3274.JPG 5th gen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Contributer Rivcyko Posted October 5, 2006 Author Member Contributer Share Posted October 5, 2006 I have a 5th Gen with a ZG Touring shield, if you like I can ship my shield to you to confirm fit to a ZG shield. If you do not think it is necesary for you to use my ZG that is ok too. I would love a CF version if possible, let me know how much, it would go well with the CF dash & yoke cover I got. Thanks. I'll try the gallery again. Damn. No worky. All I need are these three dims. http://www.vfrdiscussion.com/forum/index.p...i&img=17086 http://www.vfrdiscussion.com/forum/index.p...i&img=17085 http://www.vfrdiscussion.com/forum/index.p...i&img=17084 While I do appreciate it, they are close enough, that if I had these dims., I could tell you if it fits, or I have to re-mold.

house Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 I still don't get it. In 10k miles I've never been stung or bitten or even noticed anything coming up through that gap. I have had nasty bugs sucked up inside my face shield in the past, but solved that with a helmet chin curtain. Is the bug buster for those folks who don't wear gear? I ride in the dark before the sun comes up on the north Georgia backroads in the AM. No streetlights around and lots of bugs. The bug buster gets the bigger ones that would have ended up splattered on my chin or in my jacket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer Rivcyko Posted December 10, 2006 Author Member Contributer Share Posted December 10, 2006 Any one got dim.'s? Lobster was kind enough to let me test on against his Puig. The Puig's radius is much greater, than stock. Unless there is a large demand, I won't re-mold. As for stockers,... :huh: Looks like Kevin has a one-off. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Contributer dr.toto Posted January 6, 2007 Member Contributer Share Posted January 6, 2007 Iffy measurements: No.3 taken right where the radius starts up, .514 No.2 center to top of screen, .670 No.1 length from tip of cowl to front of windscreen, 6.8" This is with a Givi touring screen. The front of it is almost identical to oem. No.3 is the one that I'm most unsure of. As the cowl radius changes, the windscreen drops rapidly also.

Member Contributer AKVFRGUY Posted January 7, 2007 Member Contributer Share Posted January 7, 2007 Hey Rick, I will send measures and pics as soon as i get home to help you out. Now to get a Great hugger i guess i have to buy a 02? lol. I should be back home around the 12 of Jan. hope that is not to late for you. You sound like you need to get a full line of stuff going. You would clean house here in the U.S. The Bizz would realy take off for you if you decided to go into business for your self. Thanks for all the man hours you sre putting in on some great qaulity products. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to get a solid reference point from outter space. It fit on Lobster's Puig, looks like it will fit on the Z.G. too. The problem is the no.3 dim. The Dum-Dum would fill the area, but it's kind of cheesy. I have 2 black ones, if you want to give it a shot. (Give a big discount, as they are first runs, and this would be a bit of an experiment). As always, if it is intollerable, I'll be happy to refund. Hey Rick, I will send measures and pics as soon as i get home to help you out. Now to get a Great hugger i guess i have to buy a 02? lol.

Thanks for all the man hours you sre putting in on some great qaulity products. Cool, I do appreciate it. Have been tossing around different ideas of how to make them all universal. Not sure how to do it. Had considered making them of urathane, so they could be flexed, highly, to comform to most any application. Problem is, It's not shiney, and would be less shiney, the more sun it got. Spacers, are a viable option, as long as it wouldn't interfere with functionality. :warranty: At this point, making a mold for every application, with this low a demand, is improbable. Damn. Do not fear! I think too much. I'll figure out something. By the by, If anyone wants to donate there non tweeked, 5th gen., a$$ end, for huggers, I'm game. LOL.

Member Contributer dr.toto Posted January 15, 2007 Member Contributer Share Posted January 15, 2007 If it will ever warm up past single digits here, I could cut a paper plug, scan and add measurements and you'd have something accurate. I'd hate to add a time prediction. The weather god is really pissed at me these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
