Performance and CustomizingShare your tips and tricks on customizing your sportbike. From windscreens, footpegs, undertails, flushmounts, paint, exhausts, and tires.
Why don't you just paint it? A lot cheaper than buying something you already have. A $5 can of Duplicolor for plastic works great. Take your windscreen off, tape the outer edges w/ masking tape, then spray several light coats on the inside of the screen (making sure you wait a few minutes between coats). Let it dry for an hour so as the paint is not tacky to touch, then remount it. Looks great!! Can't tell it was ever painted. One of the cheaper mods you can do.

It's more than just the blacked out windscreen - the Zero Gravity DB is shaped to create a zone for the rider to decrease helmet buffeting. In the case of the 600RR bikes, the shape is far more appealing than the OEM windscreen.
Also - I run a video camera on some of the rides I go on - you can't shoot a cam thru a painted windscreen but it's no problem shooting thru a dark smoke windscreen.
Check out this pic - my wife's red RR is in stock trim vs. my RR with flush mounts and Zero Grav DB.

Looking at that picture, I think that turn signals as separate entities should be removed and be integrated into the mirrors like cars... I think it could be done to look good too...

...The thing that noobs don't get is that bikes aren't cars. With a car, more or less, you're as fast as your wallet allows. A bike is far more skill oriented. Way more. It's like skiing. You could go buy the fastest race skis available, but if you don't know how to ski, all you're going to do is crash. Its the same, exactly the same with bikes.
