Aftermarket Screens

Post by twinlovin » Wed Jun 13, 2007 3:37 am

I'm looking for a nice aftermarket double bubble screen. I have only found one that I can actually buy and that's from Eagle screens here in AUS. I've looked at powerbronze (yeah I know, groan) but they don't seem to have them anymore...

So here we have the eagle

And one like Hansj's bike is gorgeous and what I'm really after

P.S. Thanks for letting me know Hans that you thought it may be an MRA screen.

So people any suggestions? Know of any nice aftermarkt screens?

Edit: and post up pics of your screen if you think you're on to a bewdy.

Powerbronze do standard and iridium only,
busters-accessories.co.uk, do all different colours, £49.95
mandp.co.uk, airflow screens, different colours £52.95.

Hope this helps, and you can find a distributor for oz.

Got it at Show And Go Motorcycles in Adelaide. From memory the brand is a "Slipscreens Australia" brand. Altho i can easy hunt it down for you if you want.. Cant remember retail, but its over the $100 mark..

Hope this is some help. If you ring up show n go, ask for Dan, if you email, you will get Brenton, he should also be able to help no problems.

Thanks guys for all the replies. It's been really helpful.

Bob just wondering do you have a photo of the screen fitted to your bike? If not I'll drop in to Stafford Yamaha and check it out for myself? :wink:

Cheers bob. Looks good.
Funny how a screen can change the look of a bike. When you have the TRX in track trim it really sets it of well.

"Hi twinlovin"

I've got an eagle screens double bubble on my rex and am very happy with it.
They had a limited colour range at the time but I wasn't to fussed, because the price and fit up was great, can't remember what I paid but it was cheaper than an MRA and dont even mention power bronze :shock: and they dont even fit that well so I've heard and seen!
Would post a pic but stuffed If I know how to :?
If you look in members rides under 'some more pics'( posted by ekoja) mine is the blue rex.

Cheers. Mick
