Has anybody installed a windscreen from PUIG????? They give you this piece of clear edging that molds around the edges I guess??? I trimmed a piece to fit right between the third light and the edge of the windscreen hoping it would fill in any kind of gap left there but it seems to be causing a small gap IDNK :confused2: the thickness of the edging {like a plastic tube wiht a slit down the middle} seems to be lifiting the screen a little :confused2: Any expierence with this? I really don't want to take off the mirrors, the mounting brackets, grommetts, and then pull out the windscreen. cause then I may find out after reinstalling that the gap is worse during vibration causing scratches on the screen, rather than just having the small lip that is at the bottom, hmmmmmm... thanks in advance fella's :)

All those goodies and still no decals... it's a moral crime against the Repsol.

The Puig will leave a bit of a gap at the bottom anyway, and the tubing will save you from swiping your fingers/hand across the top windscreen edge and getting cut...plus it cleans up the look a little bit I think.

Mine came with a bluish tubing, but I've considered changing it out for another color.

I was wondering about the possible gap. I ordered a lockhart phillips dark smoke only to find out it has a huge gap at the bottom! I hold it up to the stock one and the curve of the screens dont even match!

But squidracers looks pretty flush in the pic above...a lil gap on the brake side maybe but otherwise flush dont ya think? does anyone make a real flush one like stock...zerogravity?

Perhaps Scott can create a repsol fender hugger painted in the repsol colors? :sweet:

Are you trying to say that your iridium screen is a Puig and the fit is not that great? :confused2:
