    I’m looking at the Honda High screen, has anyone put this screen on their blade and can recommend them or indeed not? Are they better than a Double Bubble?
    Because my bike is a Repsol I need the sticker on the screen so I will have to go direct to Honda, £109.

    Never tried a double bubble nut is much better than the standard screen above 80.

    A lot of people on here swear by their Honda high screens Carl. As they didn't make one for mine I went down the double bubble route and the difference at motorway speed is staggering. So much more confidence inspiring. The MRA one I got was £70 and I bought new mounting bolts and grommets at the same time for a tenner. So £110 for an OEM with decal doesn't look too bad by comparison.

    Are they much taller than the standard Stu? The standard one is useless at high speeds..

    This is the difference in profile between the OEM one and the MRA one. It's a bit difficult to judge the height difference from this shot but the profile is significantly different, which is probably the main component in the effect.

    Just to add my two pence in. I bought this screen last year and cant recommend it highly enough. Good quality and really does deflect the air over at high speeds. I actually thing it looks nice aswell.

    Honda CBR1000 RR 2008-10 McGuinness - Tall Screen - and at £55 cant complain. I stuck a honda emblem on the bottom of mine to replicate the original honda screen, looked great.

    Not the best picture of the screen but you get the idea and the honda logo fitted also.

    Si, these come plain with no stickers and get them in clear and various other colours im sure. I prefer the clear.

    Hiya Carl. I have the OE tinted high screen on mine and it makes a huge difference at speed; I couldn’t recommend it highly enough. I understand they are a pig to fit though and great care has to be taken not to either snap the lugs or worse still crack the fairing, there are a few threads on here about it. I decided it was not worth me taking the risk and got Marshalls to fit mine when it went in for service, I think they only charged me about 40/45 quid labour so its was a no brainier unless you are confident enough to do it yourself without causing any expensive to fix damage.
