notably, i had a puig double bubble on my zx12 in dark smoke- had to send a few brands back to kneedraggers for poor quality. the puig fit perfect and looks SHARP on the 12. ill post some pics when i get them in- should be any moment. im sure i could find a better price than 80 bucks for a screen- which i think is full MSRP.

dark smoke

clear
i do not like the 1400R decal on the clear version. i think i am going to buy the dark smoke, same as whats on my 12. theres other colors like blue and green and whatnot, but black or clear is the way to go... if anyone wants me to foward the email i am about to receive with pics attached, let me know. i grabbed those pics off ebay for the time being.

I wish I would have waited & gotten the Puig. I bought a PowerBronze of ebay & I'm not sure If I like the fit. It leaves a small gap on the bottom plus it's smoke all the way down, meaning if you look closely you can see through & see the knock over sensor, wires etc..

Ive heard that some people have painted the lower part of the windscreens when faced with that problem. Maybe you could research it. I think theres a solution out there for you.

Yeah, I might just spray paint a curve similar to the OE to hide all that stuff underneat. I would not recommend the powerbronze to someone who's picky about fit.

I bought on ebay and asked if the dark smoke had the logo and they said it does. It is smoke all the way down....if you don't want to paint the lower portion go with the black, but you won't be able to see out of it (probably doesn't matter to some).

Oh forgot, the smeg is chrome too, so all black except pipe, wheels, and clear stainless lines.

It's your choice and I don't want to start a flame war but....I never understood why someone would want smoked turn signals. The point of signals is so other people can know what you are doing. Why would you want to make it harder for other people to see you?

signal lights don't mean anything here anyway, no one pays any attention, they just fuckin run you over.
Drive defensive or die.
I never assume anyone see's me, never mind my signal.
Half the assholes don't see the bike at all, nevermind my weenie signal light. :P
no really they are still pretty bright when lit.
