Very cool. How did you order? Their website has zero qty on all those windscreens. Just get on a list?

Wow i am gonna have to place an order. I didnt see anything on thier website to specify the touring windshield. I am guessing at order time i need to specify that or they just send that by default?

Tex

Scott what was the shipping cost on the windshield? Also what style did you get? Flip? Standard? What was total cost? Thanks

Hey guys I love the look of this windscreen but I'm worried it's going to be over my eyes. I'm 5'7". Does it go up that high? Any thoughts?  Anyone who ordered this have a problem seeing?

Tex,
I can't answer for the 91'-93' flip screen. I have the Powerbronze 89'-90' flip screen and I am 5'7". My field of vision is above the windscreen.

I just recently received my new one from Twisted Throttle. It's a MRA with a spoiler. It fits great and looks great. Right now it's about 5 degrees out so I won't be testing her out anytime soon.  :drinks:

I ordered the iridium blue for my 92. I liked the performance of the extended flip screen but it made the bike look like the head of Marge Simpson :lol:

Ill keep it for any extended super-slab trips during the buggy months but I ordered a stock size in iridium blue.
I was impressed with the quality and fit. its a good screen

Nice ! I think the spoiler model is one of the better ones. I ordered a MRA Touring screen from Twisted Throttle. Expecting it sometime later this month. Leon has one on his bike.
Can't beat the price on the Power Bronze and that's with shipping... I wish Zero Gravity made a "Double Bubble" model for the FJ. I had a old Double Bubble laying around from another bike and set it on top my screen and it looked real sharp. Wish full thinking...

I ordered my MRA screen Dec 6. Twisted Throttle has been real good about keeping me informed. I knew it was going to take some extended time before I ordered it. If you can get a hold of one they have a nice catalog.
