To double bubble or not

ndso20 · Feb 11, 2014

Evening guys

Ive got a blue and white 2008 Tuono R and am thinking of getting a double bubble for her. Any ideas which is the best one? I'd like a good looking one for my baby, but also one which may give me a little wind protection. I'm 6'1 and get a bit of a battering sometimes.....

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

Cheers!

I've had an ermax and a puig on ma machine, they both work well enough for me 5'10".

The ermax wings marked the decals and the puig started crazing after 4k miles but no fractures that went to the edges.

I bought a replacement puig from KB and I've still not replaced the original dark puig.

Ain't tried the powerbronze one yet but have one on another machine and I'm well chuffed wae it.

I have the same bike as you and put a PUIG on it. It helps a fair amount but I still get some buffeting and I'm only 5'10".

Ok,lets get one thing straight,...wind protection and pretty looking never come in the same sentence.For a tall chap like yourself,you are gonna need a big tall ugly screen.
I'm the same height as you and have tried the Official Aprilia tall screen and the Puig,...they make little to no difference.
I have heard good reports about the Ermax,...but its hideous,imho,...and they can mark the bodywork.
The best one is the Laminar Lip,....but FFS,...ugly or what??!!

I have a smoked Puig on my bike,...mainly for looks.I like the way the smoked screen hides the hole between the headlights,...but wind protection?:no :no :no
Just my 2p worth.

if you go for an ermax stick 2 felt pads on the inside wings and it stops the bodywork getting marked

Thanks guys. Ermax it is. Â£57 from Demon Tweeks delivered

The Laminar Lip was the best most effective wind cheating screen for the Tuono I had tried on my T. Kept the stress off my neck allowing me to use the awesome V2win thrust. If anyone is interested I might still have mine in the loft if my better half hasn't eBay'd it!
