zg double bubble, whos the cheapest?

im thinking of buying a tinted or smoked zg screen for my bike so im trying to see whos the cheapest around here for them. ebay seems to have them for the same price as most websites so im ruling that out for now, so is there a place thats cheaper then the rest? i know when i bought my speedohealer i save 15 or 20 bucks on it on a site i found.

i wouldn't but a shanghai special because your rollin the dice on cracking and fit problems. I'd buy a used OEM and paint the inside if you want or spend 100 and get a good one like Zero Gravity or Puig. I don't care for the DB albeit alot seem to like them. i put my stock one back on and painted it because it works well aerodynamically and I like the lower look better.

as much as i like the look of the stock on the db style has really grown on me over the last couple months. i really disliked it alot but i think it modernizes the bikes looks quite a bit. i thought about a cheapy ebay brand but seems like 80% of the people who buy them have a problem with them so ill just avoid them. mine is fine so id paint it as i had originally planned on doing but really im starting to prefer the look of the db. hell if i cant find one cheap ill just paint it for the time being

this is what mine looked like with the shanghai special. But I prefer the minimalist look and function of the OEM. Take your time and look around til you find what you want since yours is OK.

my buddy bought a Hong Kong DB special last year , it did not fit properly 1/4" gap
then when he carefully tightened the screws it cracked .. you get what you pay for !!
I like the the DB only cause I'm a 6'4" freaka !! I feel I get a little more wind protection
stupid question : Nath the tank pads look great are they magnetic ? who makes them ?

not magnetic but can be peeled off and reused, accord to instructions. They didn't list the Superhawk when i got them, but they knew how to cut them to fit. high quality. good people.

yeah man i like those tank pads. id actually like to find a way to protect my tank a bit more from my jacket without putting something huge on there. and the windscreen looks good i like it. might go with a puig they seem to be a bit cheaper and look the same
