Hong Kong Windscreen?
Has anyone here purchased one of these widscreens off of Ebay? These sellers in Hong Kong seem to have good feedback on high volumes of sales. For instance.......

How do you like it? How does it fit? How is the overal quality?
I don't have $80 for a windscreen nowadays and there is really nothing wrong with my stock shield. Their price is within my budget and just thought a change might be nice. Thanks!

I got one of these for my track bike because they where the only ones to offer a clear double double. I paid $25 shipped. For that price I was willing to try it.
It is good quality plastic. It fit O.K. One of the holes was a little off. I am not sure if it is the windshield or the bike. The plastic I am using had been broke and repaired where the wind shield mounts. There is a small gap in a couple of places around the third eye light.
With a little filing here and there you be able to get it to fight good.
Hope this helps.

I got one a couple months back and it just started to crack in the middle last week. This week another crack beside the first one. It didn't fit well, had to drill a bit during install. I imagine too much stress on it maybe. anyway-Failed experiment! I'll not get another one.

I bought one out of Canada - I'm sure it was originally from Hong Kong. It arrived with a crack! sent it back and got all the $$ shipping too. In any case it was not not near OEM quality. I won't try cheap again
