+1 Spent a ton of money on a stock BMW tinted double bubble screen, too much bubble and too much money ($195US). Ended up taking it back and getting a Hotbodies light tint (really it's a medium tint).

Love it, love it, love it! (just be sure to remove the Hotbodies sticker, it looks cheap).

I wonder if the height is enough to deflect the wind above the helmet? looks to low?
I'm thinking of getting it because i dont want holes in the screen like the original one or like the Puig i have, although i'm very happy with the Puig and it's height.

If you end up getting the hot bodies screen and the puig is still in pretty good condition i'll take it off your hands!

It helps, but just a little. How tall are you? I'm 5' 9", and never had an issues with the wind, just wanted something that looked nicer (tinted), but what was really nice is having tint over the stock gauges which are hard to see with a clear shield.
