experience short yamaha windshield?
 

Hello everyone!

I'm new at the forum so I don't know if this post is in the right place.
But I recently got my motorcycle license and bought a xt660r as my first bike and love it so far!:luv[1]:

The only problem so far is the wind on my chest with higher speeds.
So I am thinking to buy a windscreen, but find the big windscreen from yamaha to big and not good looking with the bike.
The shorter version is much better looking, but I wonder if it does the job well?
I'm only 1m68 tall so I think it is high enough to cover my body (only not my helmet).

Does someone have any experience with the shorter yamaha windscreen?

ps. I find the puig windscreen not good looking either.
sorry for my english but I'm from Belgium and speak dutch.

Hello! I have this on from GIVI on my XTR,it makes a good difference and makes riding much more nicer.

All the best!

thanks for the suggestion of the givi windscreen, but it is not realy my taste.
It looks like it is somewhat the same hight as the large yamaha windscreen.

For the moment the only screen I like is the short yamaha windscreen. But I wonder if it does the job well :/

I have that big yamaha one screen. 175 cm. It will kill your ears. Post your experience, please, if you go for shorter one.

Good to know! I must say I am very happy with my scorpion exo-1000air helmet and dont have mush trouble with noise so don't know if it should be a problem with me.
If it is the wind noise you are talking about. But I find that the tall yamaha windshield not good looking.

But I have found a gorgeous tall screen but it is of a post 5 years ago and he didn't answer.
So please if someone knows which screen tis is tell me! :ne1:

Kev, CaptMoto do you have any idea which screen this is?
Or have you experience with the short yamaha windscreen?

I'm defenitly getting the short windscreen, so I will tell yo my experience with it ;)

I also don't like the large touring screen.

I have a puig one which is a little taller than standard and blend in very well with the lines of the bike

Screen
 

If it's the medium sized Yamaha screen then yes I have it. There is the small original size , medium and large one ... Which is ugly ! Medium works really well and pushes the air up off your chest but doesn't buffet your helmet, and it looks good . Hope this helps

I had the Puig screen on my XT660X and I found it excellent. It all depends on a combination of factors such as your height, what helmet you use, what kind of riding you do etc etc so all of us will have our own experiences. I love the Puig screen and I think that it suits the bike but again this is a personal opinion. Good luck!!!
