As Alway's , You get what you pay for . Put a topline powerbronze screen next to a $30 ebay screen & see if you can tell the difference. Unfortunately cheap crap looks & performs like cheap crap .

Fitted to a bike I doubt there's a big difference in appearance.
Performance wise, I bet there's no difference in wind deflection either. Maybe there's a wank factor to the more expensive item but I'm happy to pay a quarter of the amount for the same result .

Not sure how much you have looked but a zero gravity screen from US delivered $110 approx is ok by me. As soon as I find myself in a UK site I try a new search prices nearly always equivalent in pounds as in dollars.
Post seems to reflect the cost of one way accompanied baggage rather than just sending the item.

The screen is 30 mm highier than OEM, has the proper recess at the front edge, comes in dark smoke. In a word that is what I was after. The price - 67 pounds (about $110.00) perfect. Wait untill you get to checkout and see the price of shipping - 130 pounds - $205.00 Scary !! And that is the cheapest option! We can send 20 kg to UK for $95.00 but getting 5 kg back here cost twice as much. Or does it? It seems we getting ripped off blind.

You are not wrong there. I find the UK sites to be biggest offenders when comes to postage costs. Suggest check the prices for Powerbronze in UK and then for the same items on Australian site. We are getting pretty much f#*d over here Scary
Had a look at that zero gravity screen today. Looks fine as you said. Will get myself one. Thanks Pi_thumbsup

Well the $20 double bubble screen I ordered off ebay arrived the other day and I'm not even going to try and fit it. I'm not saying it wont fit but it aint going near my bike. I have enquired about a Zero Gavity ST screen and it will cost about $110 delivered from the states. I'm looking for a screen that fits like the original and have been told these do.

There are a few guys that run the Zero Gavity screen. So you shouldn't have any trouble with that brand.
Thanks John

when i brought my Gen11 i got a hotbodies screen out from australia and the bike shop said they had a hell of a time fitting it and the screen does not sit flush so if thats where the trouble with the cheap screens is the expensive ones aren,t much better. i got a zero gravity one out from the states (cheaper than getting it from oz) for my Xs 600 and it fitted like a dream.

Back on for the first time for some while.

As some may know, we sell Zero Gravity screens (as does Faster Faster).

As Steve seems to be away, I will jump in and state that either he or I can supply screens at what should be damn close to the US price.

As Steve seems to be away, and not wanting to see business unecessarily going overseas, I'll put a price of $110.00 plus $10.00 post Oz wide for double bubbles for both Gen 1 and 2.

Gen 2 we have.

1 x Clear
4 x Light Smoke
3 x Dark Smoke

Gen 1
1 each Light Smoke and Dark Smoke.

Preference is for business to go through Steve if he is around an has stock, however as he's showing away, happy to fill the gap.

I've bought a couple zero gravity screens as factory seconds from the US for my gen 2 and have been very happy with them.
I would certainly look at buying another one of their screens again if/when I need one. Would prefer to buy from an aussie agent, but will go where my wallet takes me.
