This on ebay:

It looks great. Strange that it's coming from The Czech Republic.

looks nice, may require cutting down for proper see over.  I have Puig on my Xtown 300i---required cutting about 4 inches off for proper see over.

I like what it does for the hands!
I've only ever had one screen on a scooter - but I've seen that a lot of urban riders in Europe ride behind, and within, tall screens.

I had one of those before it broke (my fault, not the screen)

Damn thing kicked the breeze right into my visor - it was quite noisy. I could adopt the racing position of course, but that would look silly.

I'm 5'10, so opinions may vary, depending on how close your bottom is to the ground

I replaced it with a Puig, which I got on sale at around £85 (for a smoked version)

I just replaced my stock windscreen with the Puig V-Tech Touring Windscreen.  It is close to 6 inches taller than the stock one so not sure about that.  got it a good price from Revzilla as a blemished one.  The one replaced was yellowed and peeling. 

John G - how did you cut yours down?

cutting windshield this time took to Glass shop---they used band saw and buffing wheel on smoothing edge.   Past have done by hand, coping saw and then sand paper.
