Wow that is a wicked screen... I fancy one of them :icescream:

If I needed/wanted a taller screen I would buy that one. Definitely the best I have seen from an aesthetically point of view.

How does it perform ?

surprisingly well actually considering that it's only 6-10cm taller than stock. Loathed as I am to using motorways Friday night blast from SW London to Ashby de la Zouch was much more confy than usual. I sat at a steady 90 (even seeing 100MPH a couple of times... whilst overtaking... for safety reasons I like to pass cars quickly). I don't know whether it makes a difference but I also managed to get another 20 miles befor the reserve light kicked in on avaerage over the weekend. I think it's main advantage is the side bits; they seem to blow the air around me so far less buffeting. It came with stickers too! (although the 69 one I added myself and now think that I don't like it � I'd thought it a little saucy originally:paranoid: )

Not bad value for money I thought:

I'd have to agree I like the screen also. Better looking than the Yamaha variations.

I have just bought one of these also! I was hoping there would be a half decent looking screen out there somewhere. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

tall screen
 

this is excellent!!! great looking part indeed! By the way, I have the 2007 XTX which does not have a transparent screen like the previous models :evil3: it only has the plastic mask over the headlight. I wonder if the shape of the headlight is the same with the 06's so I can buy such a screen and attach it to mine. If anyone could send me a link where I can buy XTX accesories, that would me much appreciated.
take care, J_maker :icon_salut:

Looks great, I posted a Q about a month ago asking whether anyone had tried the Puig but at that time it seemed that nobody had. I've just ordered a clear one so I'll post a pic when it arrives.

I myself saw that one of my dealers had that screen and I am very interested in it. I also hate the look of the Yamaha screen, but this one looks nice and not over the top.

I left it until someone gave it an honest review.

So, you guys would say it is well worth the money to fit it and you can feel the difference, not just looks?

I find myself riding long distances at between 100 and 140 Km/h and if this screen really helps to buffer me from the wind, then I am going for it.

So, the rest of you guys who bought it. When are you fitting it and what are your impressions?

Just ordered mine!!! :jerk: :unibrow:

I have read here:

http://www.xt660.com/showpost.php?p=20634&postcount=2

there is a person that complains about the Puig screen moving a lot when going over 120km/h

ok, one negative comment. All products have good and bad points, but it might be that it was a specific case and might not be a normal problem.

What is the general feeling between the rest?

Mine should arrive sometime this week with any luck, and then i have to mission it up north to Manchester so i'll let you know how it copes.

the guy is selling it for 40�+posting

Where did u guys order from ? Did u navigate the german ebay site ??

Eh? Never noticed it myself. I must admit that I kinda expected that it would but have been pleasantly surprised that it hasn't... did he have all the screws in? :icon_jokercolor:

My Puig arrived from the German ebay site a couple of weeks ago and it's rock solid, no probs whatsoever. For me it definately keeps more wind blast off and makes higher speed blats more comfortable.
I'm 5'11" maybe it wouldn't suit all heights.

Do they do a screen for the 2009 xtx, where are they and how much, thanks.

Where can I buy that screen? the only link I can find in the thread doesn't work. Any help gratefully received. Still trying to work out how to use this forum....

There are pobably others, but this has helped me..

then i clicked the http://www.motoplastic.com link and chose my bike.

this is for the 2009 XTX http://www.puig.tv/tuning-bikes/yama.../c171en/m2193/

I'm 5'6" and feel the wind on my shoulders and upper chest on the motorway. I was worried that a taller screen may just move that up to my head.

How tall are you midlife?

where from & how much
 

Unfortunately for me, /Yamaha don't do a taller screen for the XTR 2009.
Is your bike a 2009?
Where did you buy it from?

I've order a Puig screen for my XTX 2009 from BR Specialtuning. They were backlogged to the 26th of November. So I hope that date is correct.

Looking forward for a dark smoked screen for my black XTX.

I hope it does any good. I'm aprox 5'10" so your milage may differ.
