Huge difference. Idk if it's needed if you are just doing normal around town riding. I use my bike to commute so I'm on the highways a lot. For me I can't live without it. It stops the air from hitting me mid chest and pushing me on the bike and kicks it up over me. Don't get me wrong you still feel it all over. But the heavy hit of the air is gone.

I love my MRA windscreen because I can see clearly through it if I have to.

I live in Asia so see these ( or various China made ones ) all the time.
Run about $27

When I bought mine being from the US I thought I would pop
for a good one & ordered a Hot Bodies cost me $113

What a waste of money. It is not better in any way.
But hind sight is 20/20 they say.

One thing I do notice is with many after market things
aimed at cosmetic changes it is very hard to beat the stock
Kawasaki quality. Even their windscreen is nice & durable/thick
& has a very nicely finished edge.
But I wanted a bit more size which again I was disappointed
as the HB one I got is barely if any better in size/protection

So I say no worries on the China made stuff I have seen ;)

Mate, i bought one of those (tinted version) about 4 weeks ago and i'm really happy with it, perfect fit and did not notice any substancial difference in materials compared to the stock one. Looks much better than the plastidiped version i had before. For 29 AUD that's a bargain. Actually my levers are from ebay as well and have no complaints at all.

josvet, Ive been looking for levers myself but cant seem to find any for the ninja on ebay. have you got the link please fella. :)

Ive also orederd the seat cowel from the same place as the screen, i will let you asll know how it is when it arrives. with photos if I can upload them. ;)

this is the 2wheels', the latest version is a bit expensive IMO.

WOW.

Ordered these on that very day, 5th December. Coming from China. My missus just rang me, they have arrived. Will post pics tonight when I get home. Bought both a clear and smoke, as I am starting to prefer the stock look of the clear windshield with the Ebony colour. Too much black going on at the moment IMO. But I bought both in case I change my mind!

5 days from China to Australia!!!! That is freaking awesome. Shipped via Toll in case anyone wants a fast delivery carrier in the future, I will be using them again by my own choice, when I have a choice.

It takes 2 weeks for me to get stuff that was sent from inside my own country FFS!

Australia Post..........you are pathetic.

Toll.........you are awesome.

Ok, put on yesterday, pretty happy with the quality for 20 bucks.

One small blemish, common to both of the screens, so I think is a manufacturing flaw or rough handling during/after molding......you will see this blemish right on the top edge, in the middle of the double bubble. Not enought to bother me at all really.

The edges were still fairly rough, they havent been smooth finished. 5 minutes with some wet and dry and that fixed that up.

I have to say, I noticed far less buffeting on my way to work this morning. Its a shame really......... because the double bubbles look bloody horrible!!! Really do not like the look of the smoke double bubble at all, looks very odd. Viewed from the rider position, its like Darth Vader has perched his head on the front of my bike. Very odd shape. I always thought the stock screen looked odd, but these double bubbles even more so. Gonna revert back to the clear screen as I really do like the wind factor it provides but will stand out less being clear. Hate the windscreen on this bike, whoever designed it should be shot.

i bought one years ago and put one on my VFR800 & it was magic kit on long rides, the reduced wind buffeting is great cos it cuts down wind noise, and reduced my neck pain as well cos my head wasnt getting buffeting by the wind as well
