Puig 5992W Clear Touring Screen
: Puig 5992W Clear Touring Screen: Automotive
My first bike having been a naked bike, I assumed that the secret to a more comfortable and quiet ride would be the simple addition of a windscreen - any screen! I've learned quickly that a windscreen seems to be a hit or miss affair. I researched, talked to some people and chose the Puig. I'm 5'9" riding a 2015 Honda NC700X which probably puts me at the short end of those tall enough to comfortably straddle this bike, and while the screen does effectively block much of the body wind, and while I can keep my face shield up at 40mph, at 70mph + the wind buffeting the top of my HJC modular helmet is pretty harsh, and the noise utterly deafening unless you're wearing earplugs. I tried moving the screen up an inch or so using the bike's stock upper mounting holes and if anything, the buffeting and noise are even worse! It's certainly better than no windscreen, and better than the stock Honda flyscreen, but has come up a bit short (ha ha) in what I was hoping for.
Works as advertised. Looks great. Reduced the wind that typically hits me directly. At first I thought the curved edges near the bottom would create a visual problem, but it didn't. Overall I'm happy with the product and the price was reasonable. Delivery as advertised. Would buy again if I ever needed another one.
Pretty much what you would expect. Very easy to install. Packaged well and shipped pretty quickly considering it came from Europe. Definitely does a better job deflecting wind than the stock shield. Looks good too.
Re-routes more wind away from my chest area. Still have wind buffeting my helmet. And I am 5' 7".
Mostly aesthetic, did not notice much of a difference in wind deflection.

I'm 5'11" tall, there was wind buffering on helmet. I attached original screen with Velcro as an extension, now it function as I had expected.
The dimensions given for the size are wrong. I based my purchase on those dimensions.
Not for touring unless your under 5' '2" hits a person in the chin need a full face helmet with the screen ,seems to have an extremely narrow wind stream channel and only lessons rider fatigue in frontal chest area. Creates turbulence on helmet, should have done more research!!
Excellent upgrade to my machine
