thetruck454 Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 The Givi 2122s Ordered it from Motostorm - delivered from Italy in about one week. The screen is great so far. It did require adjustment of the mirrors to avoid touching at full lock. The other concern is the warning sticker that came on the screen: "do not exceed 80mph and do not leave parked in the sun." Apparently this screen may melt your dash. I've had zero problems with it over the past 1k miles. Highly recommend this screen. I use this for my cold weather screen, it's great. My warm weather screen is the Calsci shorty '15 FJ-09 with an aftermarket parts addiction Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Esperance Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 AEG, just Google "FJ-09 RAM Mount" and select pictures. There are several you will recognize. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbr600 Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 I tried to get some basis for comparison and to make it easier to understand why one windscreen works and another doesn't by doing a drawing that would allow us to uniformly measure and then compare. Here it is again: You forgot to add the link to the 3D laser that will take all those measurements while comfortably seating on the center stand 8-| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Esperance Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 I tried to get some basis for comparison and to make it easier to understand why one windscreen works and another doesn't by doing a drawing that would allow us to uniformly measure and then compare. Here it is again: I would suggest starting this as a new thread and making it clear that replies should be the X,Y & Z measurements. Also screen type and performance should be stated Mine are X=33" Y=25" Z=4" The only complication is that I have and MRA X-creen touring visor on top of a Natiional Cycle V Stream Sport Touring screen that has been shortened by 3 inches. Results are no turbulence and some wind noise at high speeds. Easily managed with earplugs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member 1moreroad Posted August 29, 2017 Premium Member Share Posted August 29, 2017 Just installed the D2122DT today and did a quick ride. It replaced the stock screen with a Laminar Lip. The lip helped a great deal under about 40 mph and a little above that. Now with the Givi, without earplugs I was surprised how loud the engine when revved! In normal riding, the new screen helps a great deal under 60 and continues to help above 60. A booming bass is still there but higher frequencies are gone. I get much less airflow to my face, but I can feel wind in the top vents of my helmet. If I slouch, I can find a completely windless pocket of air. Just sitting, and the wind is still cleaner than standing in straight wind blast. I think I'll like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member 1moreroad Posted August 30, 2017 Premium Member Share Posted August 30, 2017 I have the Kappa version of the screen... identical. Good screen, but I had to ditch the 1/2" offset spacers for best result.Good idea. I might try that. I think it's quieter when I'm closer to the screen. I also need to remember to check to see if the dealer kept the handlebars forward when they did the recall. If not, that will bring me closer, too.

skyllz Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 Any Canadian distributors doe the National Cycle N20317? It's the only "bigger" windscreen that does not look like a barn door(Givi/Kappa)... and with the colder weather, the stock one is not cutting it anymore! Or if someone wants to sell theirs since they have gone with something else, fell free to offer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the Kappa, i'm sure it works and i'm usually function over fashion but damn... it looks huge. Mind you, so do I on the bike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Offers good protection too, although if you're much taller than I am (5'9")... might need something taller (Madstad?). I'm 6'4"... Having ridden sportbikes previously I am happy with the stock one so far, I just need more protection from the cold mornings until... well... it goes into storage in +-2 months. If I wanted more protection I would have picked up a FJR1300 or a ST1300 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
norcal616 Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 I like the Givi one...function over looks is the main goal... compared to stock I love the fact it helps push air away from going over the tank and landing in ones lap to keeping the vast majority of the air to just outside the edge of my legs...it also keeps a good majority of air off the chest area which took me a few days to get used to as the force of the air was part of my "internal speed gauge" ... 2012 wr250f - C-class 30+ age group 2015 fz-07- Hordpower Edition-80whp 2015 fj-09- Graves Exhaust w/Woolich tune by 2WDW @120whp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buz11 Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 Got a CalSci short screen for some wind in my face this summer. It's not as smooth air as being hunched over on a sportbike, but pretty close. Easy to switch with the CalSci medium + XCreen deflector I have for colder weather and longer rides.

cbr600 Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 Is there a short screen that fits the mount of the Givi? I want to setup for a quick screen swap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suncoaster Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Is there a short screen that fits the mount of the Givi? I want to setup for a quick screen swap.Maybe the short Givi screen ? I have re-drilled the (cut down) stock screen so that it uses the Givi mount in summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbrtp Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 Is that the 240mm screen from Powerbronze ? Anyone using a tinted version ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmirF121 Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 Hello everyone! I am a new member of this community. I ride Yamaha MT-09 Tracer, I'm 188cm tall and stock windshield creates too much buffeting in my helmet, so I ride without a windshield. Has anyone tried one of these with a stock windscreen? https://www.ebay.com/itm/Motorcycle-Windshield-Windscreen-Wind-Screen-Deflector-Clip-on-Clear-Universal/391924376965?hash=item5b40836585:g:LcIAAOSwLJ9aBp0j&vxp=mtr Any better? I am trying to avoid buying one of those barn door type of windshield like givi or kappa. Truth is, Puig Touring looks nice but windguards are touching it when locking handlebar left or right.
