givi windshield?
« on: July 22, 2010, 12:25:28 PM »
Hello all! I just ordered the givi screen for my 2009 xciting 500! I was told it will fit! I hope so! Do you have any knowledge about it! Also how do extend my mirrors? Thank you all so much!!

I have the tall Givi on my 09 Xciting, it fits fine.  Looks a bit funny at first because it was originally designed for the scoot with the mirrors on the fairing.  The mirrors on the 09 handlebars will bump the windshield when turning tight like parking, etc. Not a problem when riding.  Good wind protection, makes a big difference out on the road.  You will like it.  ;D

Hey guys,

I recently added some matte black "Bar-End" mirrors in place of the stock round chrome mirrors on my 2010 Like 50 4T. I had never seen this done on a scoot before (usually on cafe'-racer style older sports bikes), so I just had to try it. I'm very happy with the results and as a bonus it also frees up the original mirror mounting points for adding a windshield later! I can post photos in a day or 2 if anyone wants to see the results.

Josh.
