Iridescent double bubble

While I was down at Daytona, I saw a green 12 with an iridescent screen. The "spectrum of iridescence" was tilted toward the green colors, and the effect was quite nice. I've been looking for a red version of this screen without success. Anyone know?

Well obviously...

Since it was on a green bike, it was a regular screen that had been "high speed burnished" (kind of like what happens to the heat shield on a spacecraft). I am afraid that effect is impossible to achieve on a red or silver bike. Because they are slower.

Close..but not quite.

It is possible to achieve the effect on a Silver bike..but impossible to maintain it due to such high speeds attained

anywhoo...Ive also seen pics of that windscreen...it wasnt made by zero gravity...it was some other weird named company. Perhaps the gustaffson guy can do it?

SS, Quick red fled the green machine, who couldn't take what he'd just seen. He went and got the proper hue, and loved the way his bike then flew. RED!! YCIS, you know a link for Gust...........
