Better windshield
I find that when I get up to around 200kph, I really have to tuck under the windshield to reduce buffetting, jacket flapping....
Does a 'double-bubble' help this? Are there any other ones out there...LP,...
Which 'dark smoke' one looks the best?
This is for an '01 zx12 BTW.

My 12 is a 2002 model, which comes stock with a double bubble, and yes it does make a huge difference. At speedo indicated 185mph, it feels fine behind that windscreen.

My '02 came with a Kawasaki windscreen.

There is better wind protection with a zero gravity double bubble.I bought the clear so I can see better in low light conditions.I also have the Zero Gravity sport touring which offers even more wind protection.

I have the sport touring clear as well and think it was well worth the money. When tucked I like to still be able to see the road. Even with the sport touring zero gravity double bubble you are going to have to tuck pretty tight in my experience.
