VIFFR Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 Hi all. I'm posting here as well as in the mod questions sub forum. I'm looking for a supplier of the Puig racing screen (double bubble) in dark smoke for the 5th. I've decided i need this mod but can't find a supplier. I found it listed on Puig's site so i know it exists but my google-fu is poor this week. Can anyone point me in the right direction,? Cheers!

wera803 Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 I bought one many years ago for my 2001 and looked for another one for my girlfriend's 2000 a couple of years ago, but haven't found one. Seems they quit making them or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer Duc2V4 Posted December 17, 2015 Member Contributer Share Posted December 17, 2015 Revzilla is a Puig reseller but does not have this particular screen listed. Maybe they can tell you if it's still available from Puig and that they can order it for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer deltaboxii Posted December 18, 2015 Member Contributer Share Posted December 18, 2015 Check out the MRA race double bubble. Like Ken Wera803 I looked recently and gave up after a long search. The MRA screen is very nice and reasonably priced. I prefer it over my ZG Double Bubble on my '01.

Member Contributer Madsen Posted December 21, 2015 Member Contributer Share Posted December 21, 2015 I have seen it on E-bay but can´t post the link. I do not know why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indianagenius Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 Does the Puig windscreen have any affiliation with Alberto Puig that used to "manage" Dani Pedrosa? If so, I'd stay away from it. Just a joke...enjoy your windscreen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I made certain that it did not before I purchased a lot of 4 (or maybe 5) when I found them mis-labeled on ebay as VTR 800 Superhawk wind screens and the seller couldn't figure out why he had listed them thrice without a bid.

How do you like the Puig DB? Looks like a nice wind screen. My ZG DB directed the wind flow right into my collar bones and shoulders freezing them on cold days and creating a lot of turbulence/noise under my Shoei chin bar. I switched back to stock because of it. I ask because judging by the awesome jacket I received at TMAC we're about the same size... ...except for your freakishly long arms Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer CornerCarver Posted December 24, 2015 Member Contributer Share Posted December 24, 2015 yes...it can be convenient to scratch your knee without the need to bend at the waist but it is more difficult to find shirts and jackets that fit. You will seldom see me without a pair of over the cuff gloves on when in my gear. I like the Puig but I run them without the small piece of trim that "finishes" the top edge of the windscreen as I think it adds some turbulence to my area. My Arai Corsair has gradually and without my noticing it become very noisy. I recently switched back to a different helmet and was amazed at the lack of wind noise so YMMV.
