Tall windshield/windscreen for X500 Ri 2008
« on: June 06, 2012, 12:14:36 AM »
Hello everyone, so far you've helped me find a side mounting kit in Germany, some pretty good LOUD horns and now I'm back for more help to find a windscreen/windshield for my X500Ri model 2008.  I specify the year because I found a SUPER LARGE windshield for the 2009 X (Isotta in Italy) but it won't fit my model.  THe SC2727 advertised (until recently) would have been perfect but they've stopped making them so I'm trying to find a store (anywhere) with some still in stock.  I found a place in Spain and am waiting for the answer but don't hold out much hope.  My German dealer had accepted payment and then 2 days later refunded my paypal account and the model disappeared from both their web site and Isotta's.  I spoke to the Italian, US and Canadian reps for GIVI/Kappa and they tell me the same thing.  For 2009 o.k. they have something, for 2008 discontinued. 
     Can anyone out there please tell me where I can find a windshield that's at least 8 to 10 inches longer than the Kymco touring windscreen/windshield that will fit our 2008 model?  I'm going deaf from the buffeting at 120-130kph.  Anything over 90 and the noise is unbearable, even with plugs.

Thanks
HOHO

Here's my bike with an ERMax screen that I ordered through www.redracingparts.com in Italy. I will not endorse them as it took over four months and many emails traded to get the screen to me. If you can find another source for the ERMax, I would go that route.

THanks everyone.  As for GIVI, the distributor for Quebec says nothing will fit my model larger than what I have on now.  I guess I'll just have to prove him wrong.
