Tall vs Short.....whats your experience?
Too much wind blast on short one`s? Too much buffering on the tall ones? Good weather protection? additional noise? (extra top end speed Iv`e heard)
I`d like to hear your views pls _________________ The Stig rides an Auto so is always in TOP GEAR! |

Tall ones look appalling and short give you about 5 mph more |

yes , the tall screens make a scooter look bloody awful , like something an old grandpa would love . in my eyes they are purely functional, i`d rather get weather beaten than fit one , every time i see one on a vespa , i get cold shivers up my spine , on the other hand , the mod style screen looks the dogs . keep the bigguns for the old honda 90s . ps. some tasty screens on the SIP SCOOTERSHOP website , decent prices too . _________________ Dig the new breed . |

Man, yes, the tall screen doesnt look that nice and all that.
But i removed it, just to see the difference...
The winters are a lot colder without my screen.
All that wind, all those flies, all those flying objects that landed on my face
After a day, i mounted the screen again, and i am never gonna take it off ever !
