Where can I find the best prices for a double bubble windscreen?

I bought one from Lockhart/Phillips....think I paid about 65 bucks for it. I rode with it 3 times and took it off and SOLD it...didn't like it at all! The wind turbulance that thing threw at me at speeds from about 90 to 140+ was terrible. Buffeting, noise, YUCK!. I'm 6'2" and have a 34 inch sleeve. That screen just did not work for me. Looks cool though. With my Turbusa, I gotta look more to function than style. Maybe I just wasn't holding my mouth right, it might work for you. Only one way to find out.

Put a blue one on mine... (black & blue)
They look good, if you got the extra money.
If you can tuck in behind it, then you'll be ok,
if you don't have the extra money keep it stock.

E-bay has the once in a while. I ended up getting a Zero Gravity DB from my local dealer for about $70. I'm 6' tall and the only difference it has made is that I can now see the gauges. With the stock screen it was a problem.
There has been no noticeable difference in the amount of air turbulance over the stock screen.

Pd. $65.00 incl shipping fr. pipecity.com
The concensus is Zero Gravity DB works well for riders under six feet. I am 5'8" and with the ZG DB I get hit with less wind in the chest area. It also has nicer lines and better opticals.

I bought my Zero Gravity Double-Bubble windscreen about 2 years or so ago and I'd never go back to the stocker. I'm 5'7" and it doesn't create any objectionable turbulance for me but it does allow me to see the gauges and best of all, it gives me something to tuck under when going for mach speed and offers better protection against the elements (rain, bugs, biting cold, etc...). I also think it looks way better than stock.

I would have to agree with Super Dave....If you are tall as I am which is 6' 3" it really makes the air stream very dirty and the end result is buffeting and turbulence. It does increase gauge visibility and it does make it easier to tuck behind for high speed runs but for higher speed highway cruising the constant buffeting becomes so aggravating that I will pull off the road and look for slower side roads to travel on. The clean flow of air with the stock screen is easier to take even though there is more air hitting you. All of the above is even worse if you are running into a high headwind.

Make sure it's the v-flow, I've seen some other web sites, can't remember where. Sorry.
